[QUOTE="jkupper, post: 816460, member: 61637"] I have not had a chance yet to put my two accurate loads through the chrony, so I can't give an answer on the velocities, but my guess would be around 2750-2800 fps. The gun is a stock Remington 700 with a 26 inch barrel. I can seat the bullet all the way to the lands without magazine issues. I haven't tried it, but I have checked it with an OAL guage. I was not having any trouble with pressure using H-1000, though I did start to show some signs of pressure with Retumbo at max. Sooo, maybe I will try to work up from max a little bit and shoot some more groups at .020" off the lands Also, Broz, and others in this post, have told me to try the 180 gr. Hybrids. I haven't found any yet, but I will have to give them a try as well. What would be safe increments to move up from max load, .2 grains at a time? Thank you all for your help! Joe One other question that may seem silly, but I have been wondering about it for a while. Does SMK stand for Sierra Match King? Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
