    Thanks all. I’m aware of the unique properties of 2206H/4895 in low power loads. Really after a deer projectile that is suitable to lower speeds and still good out to 200+m. I may go cast for the bush loads.
    Was also thinking of a varminting load, using 30M1 projectiles. Anyone done this?
    More meplat, more better.

    Better to use 125 Sierra 130 Speer HP or Hornady 130 spire point the MI projectiles are little stubby things and not very accurate
    Tried all those over 50 years ago the proper projectiles work very well the Speer and Hornady are extremely accurate and turn rabbits inside out
    the Sierra is a bit harder makes a good deer load.
    Micky Duck and tanqueray like this.
