[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 1955827, member: 1403"] So I loaded 4 of the 105g HPBTs up at 54g RL26 .010" off the lands and shot them this morning at 300 yards just to see if they'd stabilize. 1st CB shot was 3316fps, no pressure signs. Went and checked the target, and a perfect round hole. Good deal! Got back to the bench and fired a 3 shot group that measured right at 3" or MOA. Those 3 shots were 3316, 3308, 3292, so 3300fps average, no pressure signs. Definitely worth playing with the 105s. Will be doing a ladder from 53-56g of RL26 at .010" off to start. I also have H4831, H1000, Retumbo, RL17, RL22, and IMR7828 I can try if RL26 doesnt give me what I'm after. If I find a node/charge it likes with RL26, I'll play with seating depth a bit. I always start .005"-.010" off the lands with my loads, that way theres only 1 way to go and that's deeper. If I can get them shooting consistently around 1/2-3/4 MOA I'll go with it.
