[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 312767, member: 11717"] I got the 210's up to 2935 with 65.5 gr of RL 17 and no signs of pressure other than very slight cartering which didn't look a wholelot different than some of the Fed brass/primers I fired out of that rifle... no stiff bolt. I stopped there. That load "felt" fine but whether or not more firing at that charge would have produced loose pockets, I dont know. The RL 17 produced good velocity results in my rifle with the 180 E-Tips and the 210 Bergers, but nothing spectacular with the 168 TTSX's. The throat in the Sako is long and the 210's seated to the lands only catch 2/3rds of the neck. FWIW, I got 200 fps more out of the E-Tips with RL 17 than with H4350. never tried any other powder with the Bergers. -MR [/QUOTE]
