Thanks guys! N560 is right under RL-23. I think I'm gonna try H4831sc as well.

Please post up what you find! I went with N560 mostly because I've read good things about it in the 7 saum and wanted to test it. The H4831sc & H4350 are proven.

Will do. I've got N560 on the way as well, at this rate I'm going to have to get more Hammers on the way!

Spend way too much time and components testing 4 powders (h4831sc, N560, N565, H1000) and 2 primers ( fed 215-210) working up a load for the 184-f.
Thought I'd post my results.
22" proof- 1:8 - ADG- coal 2.975
Final 2 loads. Both maxed at 2,800
N565 - Fed 210 - 61.16 2724 6-shot .395 SD 2.8 ES 8. Maxed 63 2823
H1000 - Fed 215 - 59.95 2729 9- shot .23
SD 5.3 ES 13. Maxed 63 2805.
Attached pic 3, 3-shot groups H1000. (9 total)
Verified fps at 400 in 5-20 mph winds.
Vertical was great. Horizontal 2".
Need to finish load when I find time.

What bullet is the 184f….?

Berger 184-f hybrid. It's very similar to the 180 hybrid, but with a little more bearing surface and slightly higher BC.
Very similar terminal velocity. Expect to see 20-25 FPS slower then the 180 hybrid.
Not much load data for them, part of me would like to keep it that way as they are readily available. Other part wants to help out my fellow hunters.

I have not with the 22" barrel.
I've never noticed much of a fireball out of a 22" with n560.

I made it out yesterday morning to try out RL-23. 143 HH. COAL: 2.843 Fed 210M 1-8 Twist 18" bbl. SAAMI chamber. Found a good node around 2885 fps / 60 gr. Due to capacity, I can't go further and I'm after a little more velocity.
I ended up running a ladder with H4350 and it got me where I wanted to be. Ended up at 3030 fps. Shot this 3 shot group at 400 yds this morning.

HydroCarbon, care to share your load details with the HH & H4350.
PM me if you like.
Thx.
