[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 1174377, member: 2567"] I got the chance today to shoot 101 grs of RL33 behind the 300 gr Accubond. I warmed up the barrel with my 300 gr bergers and had to make an adjustment on my 100 yard zero since I bedded my recoil lug since the last time I shot. My last shot was an exact bullseye with the berger load. I strapped on the magneto speed and pulled the trigger with the 300 gr accubond load. It hit about 7 inches high and read 2853 fps. Hmm, no pressure warnings. Let's see how it shoots. I told my buddy that this load shot way high with the magneto speed on the barrel. I took it off and told him I would aim for the lowest point of the target center line. I hit the exact point! One more shot and it cut the first! I think I found a good load! I went out to 750 yards and had my buddy spot for me. I saw the hit, but he didn't. ***, oops I aimed at the 700 yard gong and not the 750. One more time and a hit on the 750 but high and at 1 o'clock, most likely me. Time to load more of these. 5400 foot pounds at the muzzle should be a knock out to a self defense grizzly charge. Or maybe better yet they will delist them and I could get a tag.......................... [/QUOTE]
