[QUOTE="BIG MO, post: 331912, member: 18994"] I'm running 66.8grns RL22 in 7mmRM with norma brass, 180 berger, .120 from lands. My crono is reading 3000fps and its printing submoa @1000yds. I went through a box of bullets before finding the sweet spot .120 from the lands. I could not run this much powder with the bullets seated closer to the lands without amping up the pressure. This is the third time I have loaded this batch of brass. I have only neck sized the brass and they still chamber with just a slight bit of press and the primer pockets are still tight as a drum. Primers show a little crater and no extractor marks on the brass. I did fire lapp the bore with the tubbs before load development. I feel this is close to max in this rifle and no reason to push it further. I shot a big Mo buck in the shoulder with this load last week @ 150yds. It was a big bang flop DRT. [/QUOTE]
