To keep you posted. I finally got a chance to go to the range, test my loads and dial in my new side mounted scope.
I Followed the Hodgens h4350 data. All my loads under 65grs didnt produce enough pressure to seal the case to the chamber.
I tried chronographing my loads, but to my dismay my scope’s mount was very far out of alignment and I was shooting far to the right. (Lucky I didn’t kill my friends chrono)
So to the gunsmith the rifle goes. And to the bench to make some more test pieces
Edit: cleaned up the stream of consciousness.
