Damn! What happened to the price of LT30?! I think a year or so ago Brownells (or the likes) had it 4 cheap.

Now Im curious enough to check my order history

Not enough for me to change from N130!

So we are back on a ol post. Is everyone using the 3000+- fps node with Gold LT 30 Like Al posted years ago? I am running low on the old H4198 and working up a new load with some old Lt and Bib 118s. Health forces me to look for a low recoil load.

EDIT - in the past 35.5 of LT shot 3140 fps with decent accuracy. But quite a bit of recoil ;{.

Don, this is 35.1 of LT30 with my 114 gr. bullet on the .925" jacket. It also shoots well around 2,980-ish. -Al

I had a new Real Robinette reamer made last winter. Because of the zero freebore the bolt lift starts to get heavy above 34.0gn so I backed back into 33.8 and found a nice node at 2965 FPS measured on a Labradar.

I have shot loads just under 3000 for a decade at least. I know I can't beat the windflags and am pretty sure the rifle can't either. That 2960 ish node stays in tune pretty good all day.

100 yds. I shoot a Robinette to.
34.5 - LT - 3056 fps with a BiB 118 and a 3 shot group of .250'' /
35.5 - LT 3131 fps with a Bib 118 3 shot group of .280''
34.0 - LT me 3039 fps but a inch flyer.
Then I went to another bullet and powder - 34.5 of H4198 gave me 3124 fps 3 shots at .168''
