[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2514062, member: 68875"] Call Arrowhead rifles and ask them for their recommendations. That is what I did. I used the Arrowhead XLD 300gr .45cal bullets. They gave me two smokeless powder choices. H322 and H4198. Plus, they game me the load range for each powder. And their recommended charge weight with their preferred powder, H322. I tried that load....and done. I have done 3 of their rifles to date. All 3 with their recommendations. All 3 are sub-half MOA at 100 yards, and 2 of the 3 have been shot out to 800+ yards. They also have a BH209 load if you go black powder substitute. I can't find the photos of that load, but I am pretty sure it was 2598fps and same type of grouping as below. Here are two of the ML rifles groups. #1 (shots 1/2/3 from rifle) [ATTACH type="full"]360776[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]360779[/ATTACH] #2 (shots 2/3/4 from rifle) [ATTACH type="full"]360781[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]360782[/ATTACH] The projectile used in all 3 rifles. [ATTACH type="full"]360783[/ATTACH] Plus, shooting one of the MLs at 981 yards. [MEDIA=youtube]CJn_9xFkQi8[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
