I was using 69gr RE26 which got 3,100 ft/sec safely in my 25" Bartlein bbl with the 162 ELD-X. Accuracy was good.

H1000 works good for that weight bullet.

I shoot 68.5 rl25 at 3085 with a 168 vld. The target in my avatar is that rifle at 635 yards, the 4th shot was a 1 click up and 1 click left adj to hit just above where I was holding. H1000 also shoots well in it at the same load. my throat is .168 free-bore so my COAL is pretty long at 3.090 , just remember to back down on you starting load to get a good starting point. as soon as my rl26 stock gets back up to snuff I will try it in that rifle
