[QUOTE="winmag, post: 612261, member: 22166"] Thanks Sourdough, Browninglover, & Backwoods. I found it odd that Alliant had the same loads listed for RL-19, & RL-22. Nosler recomends a very simmilar powder charge of RL-19, as Alliant, & my Hornady load book. RL-17 looks like highest velocity, but I'd be concerned with pressure spikes. I Elk hunt in temps down to -26* & Bear hunt Hells Canyon at up to 118*, with Deer season ranging anywhere inbetween. Hodgden Extreme 4831, & 4350 powders look tempting, but RL-19 looks just as tempting if it performs as well as it does in my 270WSM in these same conditions. I'm thinkin ill start with these three, & see wich one gives best results. I'm really hoping to be somewhere around 3000 fps with my 26"pipe, & one of these powders, with Sub MOA being mandatory, & 1/2 MOA being the goal. Any more load data you guys have, is love to see it. I still gotta wait 3-1/2+ more months till my rifle is done. Incase its not obvious, I'm a LITTLE EXCITED.....! How was your terminal bullet performance on deer, elk, bear etc. with these loads? Keep em commin. [/QUOTE]
