[QUOTE="kiwikid, post: 1836684, member: 56094"] With help from Greyfox I worked up a load in my 6.5-284 Norma with Rel 26 and the Sierra 130 grain Gamechanger using Lapua brass and sparked by Fed 210 GM primers. Starting at 54 grains I worked my way up in .3gr increments to 57.6 and still didn't see any pressure signs. This is in a Schultz and Larsen rifle with a 26" barrel with bullets 0.030" off the lands. Rel 26 loads, Ave ES SD 56.5 gr 2968 11 5.6 56.8 gr 2988 4.45 1.89 57 gr 3016 33 16.6 57.3 gr 3036 4.5 2.58 57.6 gr 3046 18.9 10.07 Due to an upcoming hunting trip I settled on the 56.8 gr load which produced sub .25 MOA groups at 100m and .44 MOA at 400m. I believe there is another higher node heading closer to the 3100 fps mark. The deer in my avatar was shot with the 56.8 gr load at 300m with a neck shot.
