[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2872492, member: 116181"] Dang yours is long. I intentionally set up my reamer long to use 153.5 and 156gn Bergers, and my measurement was 3.200" COL to touching with a 153.5 gn. Been using H4831SC. I'm not trying to find max velocity or max pressure, but accuracy - using the random starting charge weight I grabbed to shoot all the brass once through I stayed under 4" at 500 yards with zero tuning, running ~2750 FPS. There should be another node up between 2900-3000 FPS. I have a long barrel though, so 3000 shouldn't be that hard if there's a good group up there. If this is a hunting rifle and you have the twist for them -the Absolute Hammer is designed to jump a lot anyways, that or a Cutting Edge should be able to handle a lot of throat. [/QUOTE]
