[QUOTE="Kraze, post: 1959235, member: 115184"] Finally got my 7 Max put together, so I figured I'd share some data. Barrel is a 20" CarbonSix, 8 twist. [B]****Standard disclaimer: These are max loads in my rifle. Start low and work up****[/B] 180 ELD-Ms, RL 26, .02 off the lands (COAL 3.034): [ATTACH type="full"]208352[/ATTACH] 195 Berger EOLs, RL 26, .02 off the lands (COAL 3.112): [ATTACH type="full"]208353[/ATTACH] Bolt lift started getting ever-so-slightly heavier at the top 2 charge weights, and the brass showed signs of pressure. Lowest charge weight is top left, then progresses as you go down, with top right case being the highest charge: [ATTACH type="full"]208354[/ATTACH] I plan on exploring the velocity flat spot on the 195s centered around 61.5 grains next and going from there. So far I'm pleased with it! [/QUOTE]
