My steel target load for the last few years in a 10" 30 herret has been Hornady 150gr spire point in front of 21.5 gr of H-4227. Well this weekend I finished up the last of my supply of 150gr bullets and the last of my H-4227
Since H-4227 is no longer available it looks like I'm going to have to work up a new load. Rooting around in my bullet locker I found a relatively large supply of 180gr Sierras. It got me thinking. What about taking the 30 whisper retro and shoot some heavy slow bullets out of the Herrett. Anybody ever try it? I know it would hurt the trajectory but for woods walk course where most shots are under 150 yards they should work fine.
