I'm assembling some reduced loads for the grandson using H4895.
I've talked to the techs at Hodgdon and know I'm within the safe parameters as far as pressure, but was hoping someone could help me with an approximate velocity.
The load is for .308 Winchester using a 125gr Hornady SST over 38.5gr of H4895 with a Winchester LR primer.
We'll be shooting both 16" and 22" barreled rifles with the stocks cut down for the kids.
My rough guess is 2400 but if someone could confirm for me that would be awesome.
The kids have been shooting this load with various 125 and 130Gr bullets but I would like to try and confirm my velocity guesstimate and don't have access to a crony.
Any help appreciated BHJ
