LT30

I only tried LT-30 with the 125 gr. bullets in my M-7 Hunter 30BR. This load worked really well. Start lower and work up for your rifle.

125 GR. NOSLER A B 1.597 O M 2.289 COL T/L B S .290 B C .366
POWDER AA-LT-30 32.0 GR. PRIMER CCI 400 .324 BU. NK. DIA .326
SEATED @ 1.581 O M 2.273 COL .016 OTL .324 BUSHING 06/20/22
.131 3-SHOT GP. 68 DEGREES
 
I use 34.5 gr of LT-30 behind a 112 barts rem 7 1/2 br primers peterson brass been a real accurate load for me, I haven't ran it over a chrono yet but it's still a pretty decent load. I would start lower and see what your gun likes.

I started a lot lower. 33gr and have gone up to 35.1, seems to shoot well from 34.8-35

When I ran the Chronograph it was 37F and I had 35g of the LT30 that day and it was 2978 Average and a SD 9

Most of the IBS score shooters in the South East shoot 35.1 gr of LT 30 but the further north you go it seems less guys are using it.
Might be the higher Temps and humidity has more of an effect.
With that being said the majority of us are shooting N130.
I find that the LT30 is the most Available option for new players in the game. Most long time players have stock of H4198, IMR4198 or N130. I can go buy LT30 local or order it online. Not the case with the other powders.
 
I used 35.2 under Cline 108's in the last match I shot. It worked pretty well. I use .006" in for everything and .002" neck tension set with a mandrill. I find the powder charge that works with those parameter's.

Hey, I just so happened to end up with that exact load after it was all said and done. Exactly. Thought It was wild anyway. Sane bullet, same powder charge, and seating depth, neck tension.
