I could be wrong but i think when i used to load 30-06 with imr 4350 i probably could have done that and been just fine as the cases were pretty much full to the top. Been awhile so i could be wrong as i used to load some with 3031 i think and a few other powders dad had laying around.

Not sure if it's been said in this thread yet but if i remember from loading for my 300blk subsonic you are always supposed to start on the high side and work down for powder charge.

I'm running 10.5 gr of IMR-4227 in my 300 Blackout And 190gr bullet. I have never had a 300 Blackout short cycle running subsonic rounds. To me the 300 Blackout is the best round for cycling in a AR platform. It doesn't matter if it's subsonic or supersonic .

Try that with blue dot and let me know how that is for ya.

Actually you better “pretype” that BEFORE you try.

I plan to keep shots under 200 yards, because of my rifling issue, Im going to aim for 1500fps so that will help also. Subsonic would have been fun to try, but it will still be pretty quiet with my suppressor. I will be hunting with neighbors close so I want to keep velocity and sound down.
