[QUOTE="Big Jake Duke, post: 693578, member: 29978"] OK I received my rifle back from Sin Arms. Turn around time was pretty reasonable. I did 40 loads of fireforming brass: a 225 Hornady and a book minimum 330 dakota load. Next i followed some reported loads on this forum. I was not able to achieve 3150 with the stated rl`19 load of 85-86 grains. In my M70 I had 3070 as the maximum achievable in with RL-19 and that was with 86 grains I usually am willing to push the envelope a bit, but I drew the line on pressure signs here. The M70 has a 24" barrel and is MagnaPorted. I will try a few more powders. 3050 is really good, but 3150 is even better!I I have until November to dial in this elk load. I own a 338 Lapua, but this is the gun I want to hunt with!! gun) [/QUOTE]
