Coyote;
OK, this load was worked up in an FA, so if I were you, I'd approach it with a fair amount of caution.
Cast Performance 425 gr LFNGC, Hornady brass, CCI lg pistol magnum primer and 18.5 grains of Blue Dot.
This will accelerate that bullet to 1250 fps from the six inch barrel over an Oehler 35P.
Now I'm not a large man, and I don't want to search for any stiffer loads, but I'd have to say that in an FA you'd have to be a real 98 lb weakling to have it come up & smack ya between the eyes. I'll also say that when your up to your elbows in elk guts, and your rifle is resting against a tree 10 feet away, it's real comforting to have it on the hip. We know that ole Mr. Griz sometimes regards the sound of a shot as a dinner bell.
