[QUOTE="trailrider121, post: 442624, member: 24966"] Here is a recap on my 30-06 168gr loads using Reloader 17. It sure has some speed out of a 22" barrel. Here is my resent ocw test using my 30-06 marlin xl7 rifle using 168gr amax and reloader 17: I did not run into any pressure signs, I may go higher in charge. [IMG]http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y212/trailrider121/DSCF3704.jpg[/IMG] Okay back from the range. Went forward with more powder for 30-6 RL-17. Looks like 57.4gr thru 57.7gr have same POI. As 57.1 was scatter and and got scatter at 58.0grs. So my guess would be 57.6 gr would be OCW? Comments? I may have pulled the 3rd shot in 57.7 grs. [IMG]http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y212/trailrider121/Targets/DSCF3740.jpg[/IMG] Did some more testing with my hunting bullet 168gr TSX. Ended up using different primers, changed to CCI-BR2 no change to POI. However it was a hotter primer and raise the speed up. I played with bullet seating and I'm pretty happy with the results. Of coarse I want to retest the load and test them at farther distance. My plan is 500 yards max with this combo. Reloader 17 @ 57.5grs. Speed: .546 group 2989 2996 3009 .803" 2989 2979 2989 [IMG]http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y212/trailrider121/DSCF3807.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
