If you reload and looking for speed for the Model 99, 300 Savage......I've smoked hundreds of
woodchucks with the Sierra 125 SMK's at 3000 fps with AA-4064.
What was your load data? I have some AA-4064 but I haven't seen any published data using it in 300 Savage.
Use the IMR-4064 data and back off !/2 grain and work your way back up. I could
have gone higher then 3000 fps but it shot good there and left it alone. Use at least
a .003 thou neck tension.
