What velocities did you get?
I'd also be curious to hear how the rifle cycled.
Noticed most of the heavier rounds were suggested to run a powder like Reloader-7 and 1680 - I imagine it's to generate sufficient gas-pressure to reliably cycle.
I loaded up some 500's with Reloader 7, but never tried them. The load was from software and I lost my nerve. I'm going to pull them apart.
I've got some of the 530gr steeltips from Power-Belt.
Haven't shot those yet, 37.3gr charge. Cost too damn much to get the rounds before they ceased production of them.
Yeah, those are collector's items, now. How many do you have?

Working on borrowing a chronograph from Platekiller. Probably won't make it to the range until Sunday. I'll post up as soon as I have data.
Less than 50. IIRC, it was something like $89 for 18 projectiles. So I didn't buy too many of them.
I'm saving those for the true SHTF moment - like an armored elephant charging down my driveway.
32.5What's the max for the 500gr and H-110? (Don't have Hornady's data.)
