Re: 40 gr nosler ballistic tip results

I have a XD subcomp for i use for CC. Would i lose too much velocity pushing those out of my short barrel or would I be best suited with a lighter bullet? What recipes are you guys using for your .40s?

Re: current custom builds

Re: Trying Varget
was using h4895. Im just messing around with varget. May try it in my 243 too. Ive got my sights set on h4895 blc2 or 8208 for my go to load. Im just getting back on the reloading scene and relearning. A friend of mine got out of it so i have about 10 different powders including about 10lbs of h322.
