[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 714591, member: 48043"] 7stw is hinting you are a bit stout pressure wise at 82 grains of r22 with a 140. I haven't seen an stw myself that would tolerate getting hit like that. I'm running 77 grains of rl22 in my rifle when I shoot 140's, my Dad is shooting 78 grains. If you back down to 79 or 80 you'll still be plenty fast and you won't be stressing out everything and tearing your barrel up quite so much. P.S.-- going to rl25 will get you every bit of your speed back and keep you in pressure. 81-83 grains of rl25 with a 140 will do you well. My sendero shot 140 A-bonds at 3500 fps even on 83 grains rl25 before data came out. I dropped to 82 grains(win brass- 81 in rem) at 3450 fps when data came out. [/QUOTE]
