The alliant website lists 68 as the max for RL-17 with a 165 gr Speer.
Right now I am getting 3180 out of my 300WSM with 168 gr tsx over charge of 67.3gr. I suspect I maybe able to get a bit more out if it. I stopped there not because of pressure but it was shooting very accurately and I was out of time. I was happy because that is pretty **** fast for a 168gr bullet out of a 300WSM
Love Re#17 but not in my 270 WSM 65.5 grs pushed a 140 gr Berger 3365 Sunday. But it was also a 3" group. So far best powder for short mags is Mag Pro. 74grs pushes 140 gr Berger 3250 and less then MOA accuracy.

Northern Idaho That must be really cool living up there. Its a 24" stock Mod 70 Classic. 74grs of Magpro is absolute max. I've got a little bit of Retumbo and H1000 and Re#22. What are these cartridges you have ?
Ya, north Idaho is great! I have a 300 Sherman which is my own design based on a .270 case. It holds about 75.5 grs. of H20, which is about like your case.......Rich
