[QUOTE="Deputy819, post: 2010457, member: 98025"] Hey there!! Thanks for chiming in on this one. I don’t have a shot over 250 yards on my property. The farm next to me that I have access to the max distance is 400 yards. I’ll be using RL26 with this bullet so I’ll have a little ‘help’ with the velocity ;). I ran a pressure test with this combo yesterday at .010” off the lands and 48.0gr RL 26 was just barely compressed in the Lapua LRP case and gave up 3003 fps with a slight swipe on the case head. 47.5gr gave up 2983fps with no pressure signs. I’ll call the ‘Max’ right there and do the usual load work up being sure to steer clear of compression. [/QUOTE]
