[QUOTE="davewilson, post: 261509, member: 4491"] The bottom line is i didn't see much difference between the Rem and RWS as far as speed goes. had a sticky bolt only one gr apart. this is with just one piece of brass for each Mfr. main difference is the primer pockets. after getting a sticky bolt, which in my gun is 99gr of h1000 with 250 gr bullets, i proceeded to shoot each at that amount of powder.after the second shot with Rem and a sticky bolt, i wasn't sure the primer was going to stay in the brass when i seated it with the hand primer, i couldn't feel any resistance at all when seating. this was only after 3 firings on that case. the RWS was quite a bit different. i fired it 5 times with 99gr and 3 more with 100 and there's more resistance putting a primer in it than the Rem had when new. see you all in a week or so, some bastard is paying my way to go fishing for a week in the Florida Keys. a little different than the last vacation when i slept in a tent a tad below zero!
