   Thats the wrong bolt for a mk111, that's an earlier "longtom" type with the dust cover retaining lugs. I'm surprised someone even managed to get it in past the charger bridge in the first place!

   ADI 2306H and 2208 are good, but IMR4064 is excellent and IMR 4320 and 3031 are also pretty good. Around 45 grains 4064 behind a 150grain sbt is hatd to beat.
