Just trying to verify that my intended test range will make it out to 1000.
Can anyone with quickload run .308 Winchester - 178gr Hornaday Amax w/ IMR 4064 with a starting charge of 39.5 up to 41.5 and reply with the muzzle velocity? I have found a very good accuracy node at 39.5-41ish, but I haven't had a chance to take it out to distance to see if it looks like it will stay supersonic out to 1000. The reason I picked 41.5 as the top end, is that is when I see flattened primers. No need to push it any further if I can get it there without going into that territory. I'll run the MV through a ballistic solver to see if it'll make 1000.
Thanks in advance!
