Here is the 66g picture.




Everything the same, same sabot, same bullet, same primer, same loading procedure, same pressure applied to loading. CR very hard to get down the bore but not impossible. Hard to seat. I have had trouble with misfires with 4198 last year with Parker Ballistic extremes and the supplied Parker sabot, no ignition. Not enough back pressure to get ignition. No problem with the Barnes Origonals and the CR sabot. 4198 is much more kick that 5744, folks on the Savage forum report Barnes Origonals at 65g going 2350 fps. 5744 is about 2000 fps MV. I like the 4198 at 66 g, will write that down in my book.
Will also try 67g, 68g and 69g of 4198. One fellow on Savage forum shoots at 70 and says it is not bad. I only shot 20 shots today with a lead sled with 10 lbs of sand on it, and I had enough.
