Varget, 35.8 grains, shoots less than an inch @100, it's my favorite load...

gaudzy, you don't mention what model and make of rifle you're useing, without that knowledge, other than the loads found in reloading manuals that are usually for the M96/38 swede mausers, it is unsafe to go beyond the milspec maximum, which the manuals come very close to duplicateing.

For modern commercial rifles, these loads can be slightly increased, watching for pressure signs of course.

my rifle is a M96 modified by Kimber with a 22 inch light varmint barrel.
