[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 352095, member: 11717"] Nitroused, I bough the rifle used and fired 5 factory rounds (that came with it) through to see how it shot. I then proceeded to clean it, to prep it for a breack-in. It took 5 days, 4 of which were soaking with Wipeout, to clean it. With that I decided to have it borescoped and the smith told me the bore was severely firecracked. I hadn't worked up any loads in it yet. The 110 AB @ 3500 fps is a "warm", but NOT hot load in my rifle. There are no pressure signs with this load (55 gr of RL17) and it gets me 200 fps more velocity than Retumbo did with the same bullet. The barrel is 26". At 55.5 gr I get a slight sticky bolt. RL17 is a very unique powder and it also gives me velocities 200 fps faster than H4350 in my 300 WSM. You still have to blow out the shoulders and walls of the case right? [/QUOTE]
