JCH Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Anybody use this particular powder/bullet combo? Got a bunch of H335 and would like to use it up. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latech15 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I use 24.5 grains of h335 with a hornady 55gr soft point. I bought them for practice because they were cheap, but they group well all the way out to 500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Anybody use this particular powder/bullet combo? Got a bunch of H335 and would like to use it up. Thanks in advance. I use 26.3 grains of H335 with a 52 grain Hornady as a medium range load very accurate seated to 2.230 oal. I also use 25.5 grains of H335 with 55 grain ball and it also works well. I also use that powder for my ball loads in 308. Love that powder. Its good stuff. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKT1106 Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I use 23.5gr with Armscor 62gr bullets that picked up for plinking. Does pretty well, but I think the bullets are the hold-back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought them for practice because they were cheap, but they group well all the way out to 500. That's good to know. I might go down to 55's when I shoot up all the 60's.

Does pretty well, but I think the bullets are the hold-back. I have 1k 62gr fmj's that I can plink with so this helps as well. I was thinking of starting around 22.8gr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traviswilson Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I use it with 22 grns and 55 pulled bullet it is cheap and it groups real well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCH Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 22.8gr seems to be the ticket with the 62gr FMJ's 23.1 seems to be the load for 60's 25 gr of R15 and the 69SMK (was very impressive at 200 yards.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lablover Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 24.5 gr H335 with Hornady 55gr fmjbt wc gives me nice little bug holes at 100 yards. This with my Colt CRP-18 Ar-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerslide91 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I'm curious what FPS you guys are seeing with H335 / 55gr FMJ. I've been experimenting and tried 24.0 up to 25.2gr with Hornady 55 FMJ. Out of my 18" LaRue, it is 3020 FPS. It was a bit lower than I expected. Also, I'm still working on finding the best groups, but so far my rifle seems to like 24.8gr @ 2.20" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basman Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 24.1 for 55gr 22.3 for 77 gr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KTKlaus Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) 25gr gets me about 3000-3050 (depending on weather conditions and temprature), measured at 10ft from muzzle with Hornady 55fmjbt out of a 18" 1/8 DPMS barrel and the roughly the same out of a 16" Adams Arms/Voodoo Barrel. 26gr is about 3080-3130. All OAL was to the middle of cannular, mixed cases/range brass. Some say that to replicate the M193 load calls for 26gr of H335 or 26.5 TAC in LC cases.

gregshin Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 anyone here use a 14.5inch barrel with a 1/7 twist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxerglocker Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I use 24.5 grains of h335 with a hornady 55gr soft point. I bought them for practice because they were cheap, but they group well all the way out to 500. I load 24.8 with the Hornady 55 sp at 2.200 OAL... same results out of both my ARs and bolt gun.

davestarbuck Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 anyone here use a 14.5inch barrel with a 1/7 twist? Not H335 per say, but 25 gr of WC844 with a pulled 55 gr FMJ or 62 gr FMJ makes for a great low cost training round. Gives me 2 MOA constantly which is fine for my purposes.

MickB Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 This is the same results I get with the same load. 25gr gets me about 3000-3050 (depending on weather conditions and temprature), measured at 10ft from muzzle with Hornady 55fmjbt out of a 18" 1/8 DPMS barrel and the roughly the same out of a 16" Adams Arms/Voodoo Barrel. 26gr is about 3080-3130.

jwfuhrman Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Any one using H335 with 69gr Noslers(or Sierra's) and Wolf SRM's? Trying to figure out a starting point for 2700fps out of a 18in BCM SS410. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oak hill Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I use 23.0 gr H335 for Sierra 69 SMK @ 2.250 OAL = 2620 fps out of my 18" barrel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwfuhrman Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Thanks! Thats acutally what I ended up using as my starting point. Just need to have the weather clear up and shoot them to see where I'm at. Its been in the 30's and 40's lately, if I get them to 2700 now, how much is it going to change this summer?

Dirtychemist Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Just wanted to update this and say 24.5 h335 with 69gr Sierra BTHP is MAXIMUM in my Noveske barrel. I started seeing signs of primer flattening and indentions and it was a sharper recoil than most. I went off the guidelines of working up a load and went over maximum published values by 1 grain (23.8 in Hornady 7th edition) It was nice since it made two cute little holes at 25 yards and zeroed my EOTech in 2 shots.
