[IMG][/IMG]
[IMG][/IMG]

12.0 grains of CFE-BLK to fireform. 3500 fps with 20 GR V-MAX.
Then I loaded 3 of the FFed with 12.9 and a 20 GR V-MAX.......7/8" [3750] 22" bbl.
Then fire formed some more with 20 GR Dogtown bullets.
BR4 primers, w/w brass.

Used my new FBW with 22" Pac Nor barrel.

Next to try some of my N 120 and AA 1680.

Don't forget IMR 4198, if you have some of that. LilGun may be worth looking at too.

Default 17 AH with CFE BLK

Am starting to play with some of the CFE BLK also, looks good. Yours look like a very good start
As mentions H4198 works also, and AA1680. Play safe and discover. Bill K

Default H4198

You can hardly be better off than with H4198 and a 25gr.

Update:

Shot some test groups, fire forming cases with 12.5 grains using Rem 7 1/2 primers.

Several groups under .500 at 3700 fps.

I am finding that I need a better rest, front and rear.

Also searching for the "right" size target for my scope.

More Excuses:

Hammer gun with slower lock time! FBW J model.

The powder is worth shooting!

What scope are you using (magnification)? There are some target pictures posted by .20EXTREME that seem to work really well for me. I'd be happy to send you an e-mail attachment of what I/we have been using as well, PM if interested.

I have a 4.5x14 Nikon Bushmaster on it. I was thinking about 10x more power.

I saw the big Pluses that .20EXTREME was using, they look interesting.

Also need better front and rear rests.

Maybe less caffeine would also help!

Fire formed some [3] W/W cases with 12.5 gr. , 205m, 20 V Max at .005 free travel..........[.460"] with a breeze.

Will test some more when the wind stops.

6 shots today, all six would fit in the .560"

Pressure checks good.

The powder meters poorly thru my Hornady Electric scale. There are too many 'over's..........kind of a pain.
