Well i got board today so i decided to work up a few loads for my browning BAR. heres the loads and the results. I started at 42.5 GR of IMR-4831 and went up to the max 44.5 which the max did not shoot well. heres the results
Heres the starting load not to bad for a BAR 42.5gr of imr-4831 pushing a sierria 85gr Game king hpbt. Col. is 2.677 group is .808
Next i went up to 43.0 gr even best group is this one which measured .294 i can live with that any day.
The 43.5 load opened up to just over 1 inch so i shot the 44.0 gr load and here it is measured .736 i can live with that as well.
I belive im going to stick with the IMR-4831 for the BAR im tickeled with the way it performs.
