Starting on a base line load. LC Bras, CCI Primers, 4895 Powder, Pulled 143gr Milspec Tracer.

How many grains of powder? Looking online and it looks like 43.5 grains of 4895 Will about do it. Any input?

All tracers are loaded with different powder than 147 FMJ, not sure what it is though, 4895 will push it no doubt but not sure it will
ignite the Phosphorus.

Most people say the bullet weight is about 142-143 grains per bullet, so it looks like H4895 will do it some justice. Im thinking about starting at 43 grains to see how many FPS im getting. Im hoping for about 2700+ FPS.
