Thread: 243 load data wanted

How long is his barrel?

I've just done some load development for my Dad's model 7 with 18.5" barrel.

Wanted to run 100g if possible, and wanted to get keep reasonable velocity from the short barrel.

Ended up using 7828ssc. 47gr shoots well with 95 SST and 100 sgk's.

Here's my 74 yr old Dad shooting it.


If yours has a standard length barrel 2209 is probably the better powder to use.

Buy him some decent muffs.

Funny you should mention that, I had him on about his very old school muffs. I had two pair of good muffs with me but he wanted to use his.

He's deaf and has hearing aids already, use to be a competitive skeet shooter (shit loads of shots).

There's nothing wrong with those folding Peltors, long as they're in good condition
