[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1418058, member: 27307"] There's a lot more to this than simply relating a 'recipe' for any particular bullet and cartridge case combination. For the rifle we tested Friday I used Re-26 and the Berger 175 Elite Hunter. But we also did a little freebore and throat work before we set the cartridge OAL and distance from the lands. The Labradar showed 2920 while the brass showed no signs of pressure. The barrel was a Bartlein 3B with flutes, Borden action and a Manners EH-1 stock bedded. Five 3-shot groups all in the .3" group size at 100 yards. Six hundred yard groups were in the 2.25" zone. Front rest with a rear bag from a solid bench. [/QUOTE]
