415 powder from American reloading

Testing the 415 powder from American reloading/Midwest powders is in.
All bullets were 55 grain 3 bullets average each grain number
20 grains 2365 fps
21 grains 2507 fps
22 grains 2660 fps
23 grains 2816 fps
24 grains 2980 fps
25 grains 3113 fps
I read another post about Midwest powders the person loaded 26.5 grains said it was perfect.
 
Do not know your barrel length, Though your Velocity & powder weight suggest 25 GR is very close to as hot as you may care to go. This may be especially true if you consider a buffer going to summer temps which are likely to cause your velocity to jump a signifiant amount, or so I'd expect another 40 FPS on a hot summer day.

I don't need 3000 fps I'll probably stay with 24 to 24.5 grains 3000 was just a number I wanted I don't need 3000 that's just what's recommended, I'll stay around 2500 to 2800 get better powder in time site my guns try some different powders. Still learning I'll never stop retired and loving it
