Berger .204 loads

Could some let me know what Berger says is max charge for 35 gr HP using H4895 or better yet the load info for a 35 gr that would help me out a bunch!!


Cheers!!

i safely loaded well over the max listed above and had impressive groups under an inch at 200 metres. Speed was 4100fps on the chrony. Gun is a CZ527 Varmint. I was at 28.2 gr of H4895 and the 35 Berger. Obviously load up from below what i stated but the data I pulled off of the Hodgdon site shows 28.3gr of 4895 as max with the 35gr berger.

I load 27.9grs of H4895 with a CCI 450 primer and it gives me acceptable accuracy in all my 204s. I do however only use it in my Browning as the other two prefer XBR 8208.
