So I decided to load up a batch of 300 BLK to get my daughter ready for shooting deer this fall. She has done well in the past so I decided this year to get her stepped up to a centerfire.
I loaded up the Lee 312-155-2R with a charge of 6.0 gr of titegroup, this little round was surprisingly excellent. Loads from her bolt gun and red dot ran right at 2" at 100 yds. Definitely supersonic but it sounded like a throaty 22 LR. Now I got to say I was expecting a 1200ish FPS load, but I think this is moving around 1350-1400 fps, no recoil to speak of, I will take some pics this Monday/Tuesday when she makes it to the range.
