[QUOTE="wild_musk, post: 2815405, member: 28026"] FWIW I have a GA precision SA with aics style drop mag, and view the whole setup as mediocre - it's close to 15yrs old now tho. Geez. That said I get 3050ish with 175g Berger and (used to anyway) ragged holes that are now starting to open up to 1". It's not light with a #5 Bartlein either. I remember my disappointment after reading Litz's first book a few years later, not being able to load past 2.1 except 1 at a time. A dremel helped..but what I don't get is why give up powder capacity if you're gonna go with a LA anyway to launch heavies? I've had some good hunts with that rifle, not knocking the round, but if I was gonna do over I would also go LA, and if I was gonna do that, why not launch it faster than wsm can? Asking out of ignorance, but it always seemed like I moved backwards in performance from the custom 300wm I already had. [/QUOTE]
