Get a copy of Hornady 9, lots of 300 blk loads. From page 382, all Hornady 150 gr bullets, OAL 2.220. Start, 11.8 grs Lil'Gun for 1500 fps Max listed, 17.0 grs Lil'Gun for 1900 fps Myself, I have loaded the Hornady 150 gr SP, OAL 2.070 with Lil' Gun Rem 223 cases formed to 300 blk, used Magtech 7 1/2 primers. I started at 14.5 grs and worked up to 15.5 grs. Didn't reach max in my rifle, so I plan to work that load up a little higher. In this thread I posted the formula for finding the OAL for the bullet you are using. It's from AAC's website.
