The next thing I plan on playing with is Barnes 100 grain ttsx in a Ruger American Predator with a 22" barrel. I'd like to stick to AR-safe data in case I choose to use the resulting load in an AR. I finally scored some 8208, so I would like to work with that powder for starters.
My question is what OAL I should be using. I usually load for grendel at 2.26 or close to it. However, the Barnes data for this bullet indicates and OAL of 2.235. My recollection is that the copper bullets often shoot better with some jump. I imagine some of you have loaded for this bullet. Any advice?
