[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 2483311, member: 13833"] Data is slow coming in with my limited time, but I have gotten some initial max velocity data with RL26 and both 250 and 300 Bergers. The 250 reached 3105 and the 300 right at 2800'. This is a 24" Bartlein 10 twist barrel. Early group testing was erratic and I found out why Sunday. I bypassed doing what I knew to do and mounted the scope with #6 screws and no bedding of the rail because I have little spare time. Bad Idea! The screws turned out to be Chinese pot metal. Long story short, it sheared the scope mount right off the receiver. 285 eldm headed north and 30 oz Sightron headed south and caught me right between the eyes. No, it wasnt a high pressure load. Velocity was 2660. [/QUOTE]
