Way out to 600 was easily achievable with both projectiles, in fact boringly repetitive.
    Then just to try and screw with the system I loaded some 150's and 180's. Bugger me, they performed the same, accurate and repetitive. I would suggest dont over think it, pick a projectile you would be happy to use, load some up and if it works, go shoot some shit.
    If you need some 30 cal projectiles to play with, let me know Danny, I can drop some over.
    Thats bloody generous of you, I may take you up on that. My biggest issue will be finding a suitable projectile I can get enough of once a load is developed.....
