Thanks for the reply Taps. I have been worked on a couple of loads using AR2207. I started with 16.0gns and then moved up to 16.5gns behind a 165gn Westcasting projectile. Zero damage to targets and fairly mild as well. Next step was going to be bumping up to 17.0gns.Taps wrote:As you are in Australia, try using 17gr of AR2207 behind a 170gr cast lead bullet. It shoots well out of my two '94's, has mild recoil and knocks the rams down. My own targets are all mild steel and I shoot at them with this load without damaging them.
A load of 10gr of Trail-boss behind 150gr Hawkesbury bullets does well on all the other targets if you want an even milder load.
