I get right at 2300 with lil gun and have a bunch of loads with 296 and 110 (same powder different name) it's suppose to be +2200 and i have a bunch of that powder. 9 mm bullets shoot out of them too but it's pushing them really fast for hunting but for range play they work ok. all 3 of mine (ruger american, encore with a mgm barrel and a savage 110) shoot the 170-180 loads a bunch better than the 145 fmj.
Because if the 180s didn't work I could load them up for my 35 Rem.
I want to be careful with these bullets because they are sized at .356". Bullets loaded for the 350 Legend are .355". That extra .001" will produce more pressure. How much more I'm not sure.
