[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 35726, member: 12"] wingmagman 1. RL 22 has a well documented history for lot to lot variations. you could have very fast lot. there were several pulled from the market two years ago. 2. Bullets will vary on base to ogive. For example sierra 142s are .080 longer than JLK 140s in this area. 3. Same bullets will vary as much as .20 from lot to lot with the same mftr. Always measure. 3. You never mentioned what MV you are getting with that load. If it is 2950 or up, you are probably at the limit anyway depending on barrel length. 4. Read up on the ladder method of load tuning (here on the board) and find the best load for your barrel, bullet and powder combo. BH [/QUOTE]
