Anyone tried this load with hornady .500 cal 500gr projos?
How are they getting such high velocity with this powder? The 440gr load with the same powders is only giving a velocity difference of 18 fps between the CFE BLK and 296/H110. Somehow the 500 grain load manages to get 146 fps more with a slight decrease in pressure over 296/H110. Does this carry over in shorter barrels than 10 inches? (this is measured from breech face to muzzle right, not from start of rifling to muzzle?). Does anyone know where I can find some 500gr .500 cal Hornady XTP-FP's for sale? Hornady seems to have discontinued selling this bullet from what I can find. Anyone got any they wanna part with?
