You had a great ES and just below 2900fps. How much speed do you want? If it groups decent start playing with the seating depth. I'm not sure and maybe someone can answer it, but the Starline brass might have less case capacity than the Hornady brass you got the load data from. Your brass will thank you for the lighter charges too.2900fps is supposed to give me a little over 1000 pound of energy at 300yds that is what I am trying for but first I have to get consistent . Working on itĀ
I don't have a place to do gel test or water bottles and catch the bullet so falling back on the 1000pounds deal.
I do have some once fired Hornady brass I can load side by side and see how it affects the out come next loading. Also will be reusing the now once fired starline brass to see if that changes anything.
Till thenĀ
Thanks all for the advice.
