Does anyone shoot imr 4198 and 300gr xtp in the 444 the data is all over the place speer #13 gives 43 grains a max load others are lower so what is the deal.thanks Steve
LAWYERS!I have owned 444s since early 90s and use Lee factory crimp die.my stainless 1983 444 shoots the 300xtp very well.my older 444 not so good. I have never tried imr4198 in the 444 always H322 and imr 3031 I have several big bore lever guns and years of experience with them.thing I didn't understand is how the max loads could differ so much one manual to another Steve.
Every gun is different, each load data is a result of different lots of ammo , different barrels , different ways of measuring the data , different rifling , well you get the idea .I have owned 444s since early 90s and use Lee factory crimp die.my stainless 1983 444 shoots the 300xtp very well.my older 444 not so good.
