[QUOTE="Tidesloe, post: 778980, member: 47761"] Thanks, What would you recommend to me as far as further load testing. How do you find your loads? I'd like to get a load nailed down at the upper end in the least amount of rounds possible. When my RUM was in all factory condition, I burned the barrel out looking for something it would shoot consistently well. Never did find that with all factory ammo, and rifle. The only thing left of that original rifle is the completely blueprinted action. It would appear that I'm on to something good, but I dont want to stop where I started. There should be something at the upper end that will shoot as well. I see your at book max with 210 VLD's. Should I bump back from that a couple grains and work up to that max, seeing what it does? I'm using Nosler brass, 215 primers. We'll see how much life I get out of the brass. That stuff is hard to come by these days. I got a 7 STW coming next month, and I've been trying to get brass for it for 6 months now. [/QUOTE]
