Default 4199?

How much IMR or H4198 are you using under 20 or 25 gr bullets

Still using this rifle, got back from my summer trip a couple weeks ago,







Running a suppressor this year. Makes it so the PD's just don't pay it much mind, I got into a fresh town, waaaayyy off the beaten path and had quite a day. By the time I was done there, I had used all of the 300rds I brought for this one, and was actually getting tired of shooting. Doesn't happen very often.

Still shooting the 20gr Nosler, wet moly bullets, with 300MP. I take the cleaning rod to run a patch or two down it after 150rds then back at it. Very little copper fouling at all with this Lilja.


SilverFox wouldn't be happy if I didn't get any flower pics, lol.

Back when I played with it, I tried Lil gun, but it seemed overly touchy in pressure too me, so I just stuck with 1680.

Default Lil gun?

I might try 300MP for a short barrel (under 19") and H4198 for longer barrels or with the heavier 25gr projectiles.

I had better groups with h4198 even though it is a slower powder than lil gun or MP300. KEEP US UPDATED.

Default 17VHA Build help needed

I am looking to build a 17 VHA on a nice single shot action. Does anyone have a reamer I could either borrow or rent? Also, any suggestions on where I can find 4.6x30 brass or loaded ammo. Lastly, does anyone have a source for reloading dies?

Thanks in advance!

EJ
