[QUOTE="Ross1147, post: 2018786, member: 106919"] Not the 212, but I did try running the 200 ELD X in mine. Mines not quite a .220 Freebore, but it is longer than SAAMI. Most of my rounds end up being 3.1+ OAL when running minimal jump. Anyway, loaded a ladder up from 67-70 by .5 with 3 at each charge. Never did get a stiff bolt. Had flat primers above 69 but no cratering. I stopped at 70 because I don’t like to take it to stuff bolt. 70 yielded 3020fps which I thought was scootin for a 200 grn bullet out if a 300wsm. With both the 200 ELDX and Berger 200.20x i settled at a slower node at 2930fps. The ELDX took 68.5 grns to get 2925fps and the 200.20x took 69.0 grns for 2932fps. Sorry, this is out of a 26” 10 twist proof using RL26. Good luck with the 212, I gave up on the 200 ELDx because the Berger shot just a bit better. [/QUOTE]
