[QUOTE="Hotolds442, post: 1089294, member: 77999"] Randy, With the added brake, barrel harmonics have changed somewhat. I'd drop 2 grains and work back up in .3 increments at .075 jump with a ladder test at 250-300 just to make sure you're still in the node. I'd also look at maybe dropping down to a .290 bushing just for gits and shiggles. .0015 neck tension might not be enough. If nothing works out, it might be time to abandon the Retumbo and look elsewhere powder wise. Our 6.5x284 got a bear last weekend, so now we can start working up loads with the VLD's and set up the doping for whatever load we can make work. [/QUOTE]
