[QUOTE="Truc, post: 641054, member: 44771"] I did the above ladder test Saturday at 300 yds. I used the 165 Matrix and Started at 66 gr Retumbo and went up to 69.5 gr. Just like it showed the bullets climbed as the load increased then leveled off at around 68.5 thru 69.5 gr. I did not have any loaded at a higher weight but the pressure was showing as a cratered primer but no problems w/ bolt lift, so I figured this is probably the knode that I want to test. The cartridge is loaded at 2.94" w/ 26" barrel Should I be looking for more as the speed at 68.5 gr was 3075 fps avarage or stop and work on 3 shot groups at 200 yds? I did notice how easy it was to clean the barrel afterwards, w/ no copper fouling and a total of 25 shots for the day. Thanks [/QUOTE]
