[QUOTE="srhaggerty, post: 1256874, member: 2975"] Steve just wanted to do an update on a load I developed after my elk hunt. Yesterday we had good conditions with a south wind at our back about 3mph. Rarely happens in Wyoming it seems. Anyway printed a 5 shot group .25 moa at 100. Velocity was 2950 behind RL-17. Honestly expected a little more as it matches my 162 Amaxs velocity at same charge weight. Might have been the Norma brass though. I found pressure at 53.5 grains with Hornady brass. I had same extractor marks on Norma at 52.5 grains. The first group I shot with my load was in the .1's. I took it to 400 on some blank painted steel. Printed and 1" 3 shot group. Very happy with the bullet performance. Took me 15 rounds to find my load. [/QUOTE]
