[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1556988, member: 96226"] 108 ELD-M and 115 DTAC's (HBN coated or not) both perform identically for me with RL-23. 39grains is a soft load around 2780 from a 26" barrel. Work up to somewhere near 44gns max for well over 3k fps. Great for beating the wind, not great for learning it though. It's too forgiving to make you a great wind reader. With heavy bullets it loves powders on the really super slow side. Running heavies in a .243 and you're looking at a flat shooter and softie on the shoulder. With 115's I was only burning something like 6 mils at 1000yrds. Keep your loads away from max pressures and the brass will last a good long time without a excessive trimming. [/QUOTE]
