[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1930915, member: 2736"] I am hesitant to give out my loads because I made changes to the reamer design to get more velocity @ design pressure. I change the lead angle and the freebore was increased over .100 thousandths. the bullets are seated to 3.550 and pressures were very manageable. I also used a 36" drop tube to get bulky powders in the case. It was a lot of trouble, but nothing is free when going after velocity. There are starting loads in different manuals using H 5010 and 50 BMG so they would be safe in your rifle. I have not tried many of the new powders because I have a very accurate load and don't believe in messing with the combination of something that works very well. I will tell you that the Nosler Partition performed very well also even if the BC of that bullet are not as good as boat tailed bullets and were my go to bullets for under 500 yard shots. The Ballistic tips were very explosive at under 500 yards, the Accubonds should cure that Issue. As stated before, the bullet becomes the critical component in high velocity loading's.
