Cast up a few 300 grainers and loaded some up at 37 grains of 3031 and they seemed to shoot pretty good, 2 inch group at 50 yards leaning on the box of the golf car.
That load doesn`t seem harsh, does anyone have any specs on that load, wish Rowdy would chime in as i think he is shooting 3031

I used 3031 and 35.0 grains is what I remember ? I had all that written down and some how it has been lost . The last time I shot my 76 I was shooting Swiss . I have been working with the 1873 44wcf for the last couple years , so my 76 was taking a break  .
Pitchy where did you start your loads at to work up to 37.0 grains .

I beleave up in the smokeless load forum you stated you were shooting 38.5 grains of 3031.
I started at 35, then 32 now 37 grains.

The imr 3031 at 38.5 grains is working for me . I have used filler in some and it does help the velocity spread .

Sorry but the level of concern for replies is kinda frustrating, i sent ya a pm and another member without answer.
You were here for quite a while after you posted a question to me then left without replying.
I try and do my best to check threads on boards i hang out on and be timely with my replies.
I know there`s something wrong with me and i need to go somewhere else.  Wink

I`m really not impatiant or rude and i understand that people are busy, but if people have time to be here they have time to wait and reply.
And when your trying to figure out a load that`s safe for a new rifle it is a little frustrating.
No excuse with the pm issue, people should look and see if they have any messages every time they come to the board, or shut it off so they can`t get pm`s.
I`m new here and know Grizzly from another board and hate saying anything but just had too.
