[QUOTE="orkan, post: 2963805, member: 25377"] If you haven't pushed at minimum 150rnds through it yet... then 41.7 is going to be a pretty hot load. Even alpha brass won't take most folks starting there on a new barrel. 40.5 would be a MUCH better place to be until things loosen up a bit. I know, it's no fun. I hate having to do it on all my new rifles too... but it's just much better in the long run to let them breath a bit before stomping on them. No matter what you might have heard/read... 41.7 is a STOUT load behind a 77gr. For your edification, sharing velocities without barrel length does no one any good. :) By the way, if you have the capability, video of that portion of your action through the bolt lift cycle would be even better. ;) ----------- [URL='https://www.instagram.com/primalrights']Follow on Instagram[/URL] [URL='https://www.youtube.com/user/primalrights']Subscribe on YouTube[/URL] [URL='https://amzn.to/3txlBnp']Amazon Affiliate[/URL] [URL='http://www.primalrights.com'][IMG]http://primalrights.com/images/signatures/sig2.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [/QUOTE]
