did a little testing today 50.5 grs of rl 26/ 147 hornady eld match gave a average 2957 sd of 12.4 es 45.

rl 23 45 hrs, 147 hornady 147 eld match average of 2710 ,sd 11.5, es 32.

Bullats seated hard into the land, No pressure signs . rl 26 is compressed not sure how much more I can stuff in, plenty of room with the rl 23 load.


blueprinted rem 700 bedded in a xlr chassis , 22" barrel match grade , not sure by who. Accuracy was promising with both loads

That is cooking, Can a 6.5x 284 match that? With current load data? Wow!

I never shot the 6.5x284. I was able to average right under 2900 with the 142 and reloader 22. I might be able to get one more grain of rl 26 in the case. so far rl 23 has been a disapointment. 46 hrs was only producing 2750 think I might be able to fit 48 in the case. I loaded one at 47 and primers still looked good
