[QUOTE="eschafer, post: 2924991, member: 85764"] I just got back from the country a couple hours ago, I was shooting this exact combination.. I was finishing load development... 7mm-08, 120 gr TTSX, RL16, WLRP, Rem brass... 44.9 gr - 47.7 gr in 0.4 gr increments... did not reach pressure signs... best group (3 shot) was at 46.1 gr (1/2"group). Velocity range was 2779 - 2931 fps... 46.1 gr was 2854 fps.... This group was most precise but velocity was low... I'm all about group size so I'm going to run with it. You need to vibrate cases to settle the RL16 down in the case as it's very bulky. I shoot my deer inside 100 yards so 2850 fps muzzle velocity is enough for me.. Chrony was Labradar. Good luck... Start low and work up...... [/QUOTE]
