38-55 Cast Load Data...

I was out shooting my new to me Legendary Frontiersman the other day. I was shooting some Hornady 220 FP (375”) in Winchester 2.080” brass and 33.0 gr of IMR 3031. This is the load the previous owner was using. But it shot about 8” high at 50 yards and the rear sight was already bottomed out! I’m hoping I won’t have that problem with a 250 gr cast bullet. I will primarily be shooting cast out of it but I had these components on hand.

All the best!

mine does this with factory 200s???? really high, hence why i now down load it at 1800 or so, but now even more! an use a williams to get more adjustment....

i did see a guy on youtube under moel94ae an he actually filed the buckhorn down an the V to suit better! made sense.

must be heaps common though, not sure why!
