I've posted pics of mine here before. Fierce ti with a nightforce on top, I like the balance and how the Fierce stock fits me, makes for a very nice shooting rifle.

Strange since I have some 28N brass from them. Simple neck down I figured they would have made it.

I run the 127 at .050 off the lands. For best accuracy it was that or .070" off. Under .050 and the groups opened up a bit.

Hi I'm new to this forum and forums in general. I'm from Australia but my partner is American and we come over ever year for deer season on her property. I have 26 nosler in the states and have really struggled to get it to shoot, seems to only like the 140 Ab, but I'm keen to try the 127lrx through it, was wondering If yo uh have any load info for your 127 led, primers powder coal etc? Thanks very much for your help.

My best load for the 127 LRX out of my 26 was 80 grains RL 33 seated .010 off the lands Gave me .4 MOA @ around 3400 Don't remember the exact velocity I don't have my Chrono strings in front of me.

The load info for what I run was above. In twice + fired brass I dropped down to 79.5gr of RL33, nosler brass, cci 250 primer. Distance off the lands you would need to test in your rifle.
In new brass 80.5 shows a bit of stiff bolt lift with no otger pressure signs, in brass thats been fired a few times 80.5 was very hot, bolt lift is very stiff and I was getting an ejector swipe on the case head. The velocity was also about 40 fps higher.
For rl33/127lrx I would start down at 77ish and work up from there.
