39gr. Sierra with H335 Powder

[Stugots]

I just built another AR15 (this time it's a .204 Ruger) and I have a large supply of H335 powder. I will be reloading 39gr. Sierra Blitzking for prairie dogs and was wondering anyone please recommend me SAFE starting point to begin working up a load. TIA!

Not an AR, out of bolt gun,shot 26.5 grains of H-335 w/ 39 B.King under .2, would start at 25.5 & go up in 2-3 tenths

Don't be afraid to try more neck tension on the 39's. I have one that shoots awesome at .007.

25 gr H-335 is a good starting point. For AR's I'd keep it below bolt gun MAX

Load some from 25 gr to 26 gr in 0.2 increments and you'll find a good node somewhere between.

I shoot the 40 gr. in my AR with H-335 at 25.0 grs. Shoots fine with no problems.
