[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1601610, member: 85987"] My goto load for years has been 60grn H4831 surplus powder over a 215 with a 130 soild base ballistic tip(close to 25years ago purchase). Recently I started playing with Rl 26. In a 130 sst over a 9 1/2M with federal brass I ran up to 3190 before pressure in Winny brass I was around 3220 before pressure. After sorting out the load in Fed brass the rifle settled at 3141 es 4 sd 1. I bought some 140 game changers I ran a ladder with win brass 9 1/2m once fired sorted and neck turned to make concentric about .014 .002 neck tension. Shot well but the velocity wasn't there in the first go round. I ran the sam ladder in fed prepped brass and ran up to 3190 before I had too much pressure. Hmmm I looked at the magneto speed and it looked like the same speed the 130's shot the 140's wanted to be at. Loaded 20 and ran them out to 650. This load is 3140 es of 6 over the 16 shots I took. I run a 200yd zero in my hunting rifles because most shots are inside of that. Works out to 1.75 high at 100. I had a .1 of left wind dialed in I forgot about when I shot this at 100yds at the end of the session. Rife is a vangard from 1998 with a timney @ 2# Vortex HST 4-16 sfp same butler creek tupperware stock it came with. I pillared the stock for practice for the one I was going to buy. It shot well before that but now I just cannot justify changing it. This is normal every day groups. On good days it cleans up quite abit. As is if I included the original 3-9 nikon it is still under 1k and 750 if I don't. [/QUOTE]
