I assume you ment 41gr of 3031?
With that Im figuring around somewhere of 2400-2600fps. Which I would think would still be in performance tolerances of this bullet. I found on the Hornady site that the factory ammo tested at 2400-2000fps.

one more question are you or do you use "QuickLoad" or "Load from a Disk"?

Also could some one possibly move this to reloading and rename this thread. :D



Thanks it was 3031.

I use Both (QL/LFD)..
