School me at reloading 7.5x55 for K31

[Steiner]

I was going to pick up 100pc Privi brass from Tradex for $62.50 for my K31.
Now what load data do you experienced fellows suggest I use for punching targets.

I use IMR4064 41.5gr using Sierria 168gr HPBT or IMR4895 40gr same bullet. As far as I know, K31 chamber has a shorter throat so I keep the COL at 2.885.

Captain I'll give that a try. Thanks.

I'm farting around with a couple of different loads. First is 43gr of H4350 behind a 175gr Sierra HPBT. The throat of the K31 is definately short, so my COL is 2.92".

Second load is 42gr H380, 150gr bulk pack SP seated to 2.75". Haven't shot these yet, so I have no idea of the accuracy.

What has worked well for me is loads with the Remington 165gr softpoint and slow powders in the 4831 class. I'm using Swiss brass with berdan primers.
