[QUOTE="Dusty, post: 216558, member: 1345"] I am not sure why so I won't speculate, but my friend gave me a box of 165 scirroccos after he bought them to load in a .308. He is a long time reloader and competitive shooter so he had plenty of experience, but he could not get them to shoot in his rifle. I don't recall what the load was, but he was getting high pressure with a normally light load for other bullets. The rifle was a weatherby. After I got them I loaded up some for .300 WSM and RL22 in winchester brass with Fed. GM primers. They shot great. I had all my old load data on my PC that crashed so I don't have the charge weight, but the velocity was around 3200 I believe. There was no signs of pressure at all. The barrell was a Mike Rock 5R. I figured RL19 was a bit too fast for the .300 WSM. I have had good luck with the 165's and 180's with RL22. [/QUOTE]
