[QUOTE="Deleted member 3883, post: 1444418, member: 3883"] I knew that I had seen a BHN guide somewhere before and finally found it again. [URL="http://www.missouribullet.com/technical.php"]http://www.missouribullet.com/technical.php[/URL] It gives that optimum BHN as: CUP / (1422 x 0.90) According to my Lyman 49th edition 37gr of RE7 pushing a 405gr LFN bullet is: 37.0gr = 16,400 CUP 39gr = 17,900 CUP That should produce an optimum BHN of 12.81 to 13.98 BHN. It could very well be that the bullets are too hard for the velocities that I am pushing them...something to investigate. I am still going to slug the bore just to say that I have and also to put my mind at ease but thought this might be interesting information to anyone wondering what range of BHN they should look for.
