[QUOTE="ICANHITHIMMAN, post: 450531, member: 10414"] Your up there with the RUM and 338-378 speeds when you should be just over max win mag speeds. I checked 3 reloading manuals Seirra, Barnes and Speer they all list 87g of R25 as MAX load and with a 180g bullet and an avarage MV of 3200 FPS out of 24" test barrels. Now you are shooting 1.5g more and you barrel is 4 1/2" longer so, your speeds might be right on. As long as you dont have any pressure signs I say have at it. [/QUOTE]
