Thread: Funky speeds - Riddle me this

Greetings All,
The mention of H335 reminded me of a quote about it in one of the old Handloader magazines. It goes.

"H335 is like the little girl with the little curl in the middle of her forehead. When it is good it is very very good and when it is bad it is horrid."

The point being that H335 can be subject to erratic pressures. The gentleman relating the ditty had done his custom rifle some expensive damage interpolating loads for different weight projectiles. I note that Barnes does not list H335 for the 120 grain Barnes projectiles. Perhaps it would be wise to change to something else. Barnes had good results with AR2208. I believe that the Barnes projectiles work best when seated with some free bore.
Regards Grandpamac.
