[QUOTE="JasonAL, post: 2267415, member: 118732"] Part of the problem is I’ve researched different cartridges for this build so much but yet not enough at the same time. Didn’t read into the fine print claims of the 6.5 max in terms of velocity with certain powders that were not temp stable and hard on throat erosion/barrel life. I’m about 400fps slower than claimed with the 156 Berger. Didn’t have similar data for the 131 hammer at the time to compare. I have some room to go with more powder but in not sure it’s 400fps worth. I stopped testing because I felt like I was waisting components, which are limited. [/QUOTE]
