[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1272160, member: 4566"] Well the jury is in. 2800 FPS with RL33 and H1000, Virgin brass, Winny primers(not coming off of 215Ms just yet). Ran .5 over book on H1000 and went 1.5 over on RL33. No pressure signs. Best firing pin placement and finish I have ever had in a Savage. No craters, ejector marks or bolt lift issues. Averaged under .75MOA at SAAMI COAL with top pressure loads running under .5MOA. Great for me because I like to run fast. Groups best at factory 3.68 OAL. 3.695 OAL was .5MOA looser. ES was under 20 on all the RL33, the H1000 was closer to 40. Accuracy wise the RL33 groups looked better as well. The bench I had to shoot from was terrible, I would figure close to .25 MOA was in the setup. Lotta FPE and accuracy for the $$$. With the brass looking so good I will probably keep working with the RL33 and go a little higher, the groups are shrinking the faster she goes. The SMKs seem to like the jump, I may load up some a little under SAAMI and see if it keeps shrinking. Now that the brass is all fireformed, I will see what she can do for real. [/QUOTE]
