Gents,
FWiW, I just tried H414 for 6 ARC and it seems to be a NOGO. Like mentioned earlier, it's very SLOW. I ran an OCW from 25.7 -27.5 and unfortuantely didn't develop any velocities worth a hoot. Max charge, 27.5g, produced the fastest velocity however it was only 2401 fps out of a 24" Proof Sendero bbl w/ a 112gn Barnes MB....bummer because it was decent accurate enough across the spread of charges. Granted, I could get a little more vel out of a 105 or 103gn bullet but not enough to make a big enough difference. I could probably go up to around 30 grains but I may be over-working the brass. Ultimately, I'm trying to reach a stable 2750ish to call it good.
