[QUOTE="Bowfishn, post: 1350498, member: 56875"] Remember COAL and Case volume changes a lot of the velocity and pressure. When working up a load watch for velocity as higher velocity means higher pressure with in the same Powder. You could have loose barrel or tight barrel (fast or slow, tight being fast, that means higher pressure) If you load to a longer COAL and are not jamming the lands then you will have higher case volume available as well as a case with higher H2O volume will allow for more grains of powder without hitting pressure levels. Once you have established what COAL you can use and what the case volume is we can run numbers again. I have a 6.5 Creedmoor and use HBN coated bullets. I load to a COAL of 2.88 - 2.890" with 143 ELD-X bullets and using RL26 I am able to get 2999 fps with in pressure, when testing I got 3054 fps but according to QL I was up at the 70K marl for pressure. It is possible for you to hit 3100 fps with HBN coating on your bullets. [/QUOTE]
