[QUOTE="Lightvarmint, post: 196818"] Hello, I have a 308 Hammonds (I think same as the Jarrett (8MM necked to 30 caliber)) on a custom-actioned repeater (actually two different barrels). I shoot 180gr Accubonds using 82gr of RL22 over my Oehler 35P at 3354 with less than 10 fps deviation in velocity. You can shoot them over 3500, but the Remington brass does not last. I am using A-Square brass and I am still on the original cases. My loading will shoot in the zeros today, tomorrow, next week etc., very consistent. I just wish it were propelled by Hodgdon extreme powder. Oh well, I will just have to convert it over when I run out of the RL-22. It is a good round and very accurate. At 3354, it almost exceeds the perfomance of my 338 RUM barrel with 225 AB @ 3220 on the same action. FWIW, David may have meant 3340 vice 3430 as it would make more sense and allow the brass more than one or two uses. James [/QUOTE]
