[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1097433, member: 74902"] IMO you are hitting a node at 61 gr with 2847 FPS. I looked at your pressure signs in the other post also. I hit a good node on my 300 WSM at 59.9 gr RL17, 2850 FPS, 210 VLD with a 26" barrel. I think a lot of folks find a node around 2850 with the 300 WSM, RL17, and 200 gr bullets. There is also that higher node... but you are seeing pressure as I did. I've seen a couple post where guys were running it up to 64-65 gr and saying they new there were at the VERY top but were accurate there with RL17. Then they would add the disclaimer "but you rifle could be very different". As far as temp sensitivity goes I have found that 1.5 FPS per degree of temperature works well when entering you data into a ballistic app for RL17. Other have found this as well. [/QUOTE]
