I've been using 39 grains of IMR 3031 over a 165 gr bullet for the past few years with great results.
On the weekend I tried a buddies load and my groups tightened up and the re-coil was even reduced.He was using Re-loader 7. Long story short I'll be using up my 3031 and heading to greener pastures in the spring.
I know many powders cover a broad spectrum of bullets, but I assumed there was data for every bullet with each powder.
I cannot find reloader-7 data for a 165 gr bullet, only for a 150. Is that an indication that I shouldn't load 165's with that powder or is there a better load with a different Alliant powder?
