So I prepped those c. 55 HXP cases from my two trips out with the service grade and I'm ready to load them this week. Trying to decide on a load or two to try.
Anyone using IMR 3031 with 168 grain bullets? I didn't see 3031 listed in the M1 section of my Hornady manual, if I recall. I didn't check the Hodgdon magazine I have. I just had a pound on hand of the 3031 and was curious.
I figured I'd buy either Varget, IMR 4895, or H4895. Although it looks like IMR 4064 is popular too. The shop I use has been out of Varget for months so I don't expect him to have it.
I originally planned on the 150 grain FMJBT but it looks like 168 is preferred. We'll see what's available. I had an order for Hornady 150grains in my cart from Midway on sale and it wasn't until I tried to check out that I forgot they won't ship them here. Kind of annoying.
Also looking for Mosin bullets.
