[QUOTE="buffalorancher, post: 163284, member: 5771"] Finally got around to trying some of these today. It was 67 deg. and cloudy after a significant amount of much needed rain fall. I had shot some through the chronograph to see pressure wise what was safe and made it to 47 gr. of RL 22. I started to get a shiny ejector mark on every other round and velocity was between 3072 to 3094 fps. This round shot great and the primers were still snug but with the 46 gr. the primer was factory new tight. My rifle is a M-70 CRF with an ABS/Rock 1-8.2 5r and my load is Lapua brass, Fed 210M with 47 gr. RL 22. Is this the best I can expect? The 46 gr. load had velocities with quite an ES, I don't have my notes, and wouldn't do beter than 3/4 inch with 46.5 slightly better. With the 47 gr load I shot two 5 shot groups with one below .3 and the other close to that except for the one I pulled. Once groups get like this I don't worry about measuring because this is as good as I can shoot. If anyone has any advice on a better route great, otherwise I'm going to get some drops and see about the neighbors prarie dogs. Thanks Lance [/QUOTE]
