[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 2293326, member: 67552"] I am running the 121HH from an 8 twist 24" with RL 26. I had similar readings from 58.3 to 58.9 grains. I had a taller ladder to shoot running my ladder up to 61.6 grains and from 59.2 up to 61.6 I got more predictable, anticipated results. I never did have any pressure signs with no stiff bolt lift and primers looked the same at 57.0 grains as they did at 61.6. At 58.3 grains I was at 3303 and topped out at 3493 at 61.6 grains. I shot groups at 59.5 grains and 3375FPS and 200 yard 5 shot groups averaged 1.5". Then shot groups at 60.8 grains at 3460fps and groups shrunk to just a smidge under or right at 1". I probably can't shoot better than that so I am tickled. Have you run a ladder past 59 grains? [/QUOTE]
