Okay I worked up some loads with Reloder 15 from 43.5gr to 46.0gr in 0.5 gr increments. I had great groups at 44.0gr and 44.5gr.

I had some great results, but I feel like the velocities are lower than I had hoped to. Maybe my hopes were a little too lofty. Also I don't know if I'm in love with the RE15, I might just go with one of the traditional IMRs.

Group #2 44.0gr


Group #5 45.5gr


Here are links to the other targets.

Group #1 43.5gr
Group #3 44.5gr
Group #4 45.0gr
Group #6 46.0gr

You might want to try 41.75 grains of imr 4064 with a federal 210 primer and a 175 gr smk on top..

OP, at what range did you test these loads at? Scope or iron sights? just curious. It's amazing what reloading does for accuracy isn't?
