Load data:
55gr FMJ Boatail
25.0 Varget
Civ brass
This load is just for plinking and self defense practice.
I have a friend (reloader) who told me when I load Mil brass to dial down to about 24.5 Varget because the Mil brass wall is thicker thus less case volume/more pressure. He keeps his Mil and Civ brass seperated and loads them differently. Is this necessary?
Since 25.0 of Varget is the suggested starting load per Lyman 49th, don't I have enough of a buffer to not have to worry about pressure problems with the Mil brass?
Your thoughts?
