[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2056990, member: 63925"] Ok, I've shot the 181 HH and the 180GC out of my Sendero 26" at 3300 with RL26 with very slight ejector marks on the Win brass. But @ 3325 ejector marks were heavy imprinted on the Win brass, bolt lift though was slight, Fed 215 primers not flattened so I stopped there. I am working on a 181HH load with Peterson long brass that needs to be worked out early next year after hunting season is over. I'd like to be at 3300 with the Peterson brass so will see how that goes. The 181HH shot well 1/2MOA at velocity but the 180GC was not as receptive to the high velocity at well over 2 MOA at 100 yards. I would think you could get really close to 3400 with longer barrel just out of a 300WM with 181HH, good brass and that magical RL26 pixie dust if you could find it. I wonder if the 178AH might get three but not sure if RL26 is right powder to do it. I may try it for hoots. [/QUOTE]
