OK all you .50 cal 700ML owners I need some advice using BH209.
Does anyone have any load data for heavier bullets in the 300 - 450 gr range?
I have a fair amount of $$ into my 2 and don't want to mess them up.
 
I shoot 330-420 lead and dont use more than 80gr by volume of bh209. Thats in Knight DISC and CVAs Accura. i have a 535 mold but havent cast or shot any in a while.
 
You wont hurt the 700ML with a max 120grV load and a 405gr bullet in a sabot. Shooting big lead stay under 90grV and more like 80grV. Pressure is probably fine but thats getting them going kinda fast.

Ive shot upto 80grV and a 488gr in my 45s. I would say thats about max. It barks good even in a heavier rifle.
