[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1445668, member: 7999"] Lapua brass is tough stuff. Watch the vel and once you can see the faintest of ejector mark then back off a grain or two. I would not mess around finding the top end too much on the factory Remington action. Could wind up too high. Rum vel our a bit better is a good guideline. Hopefully others will chime in here. My experience is with an improved version on custom or Sako action and running over 3600 fps with 180g class bullets. I would say you should get mid 3500's with 181g Hammer Hunters. This I think would be TOP end. We consistently get mid to upper 3400's with factory rums. Steve [/QUOTE]
