[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 1019991, member: 10178"] I assume that your Remington has a 24" barrel. I have had great success with Accurate 4350 which you state that you have. I have the Accurate manual and it list loads that are 51,000 PSI which is the same as factory Norma ammo which the Scandinavians have used in small ring Mausers for 100 years. With the listed max loads with the A4350 you can't get much if any more of it in the case. I use 46 grs A4350 with 120 ballistic tip and Sierra Sp and I get 3000 fps out of my 29" barrel on my sported Mauser 96. I use 45 grs of A4350 with Hornady and Sierra 140 gr SP and get 2800 fps. Both loads with all bullets shoots under 1/2" at 100 yards and either load kills deer like lightening has struck them. I use Remington cases and Fed. 210Match primers. The Accurate manual uses a 24" barrel to do their work up and they state that with the 129 Hornady bullet 46 grs A4350 does 2753 fps. [/QUOTE]
