[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1497591, member: 74902"] One problem with RL26 and the 6.5 CM is to get those 2900 FPS plus speeds, you will more than likely have so much powder in the case that you will start crushing it when seating the bullet. This can cause various issues like high runout when seating the bullet, and even higher ES and SD. This is most likely why you don't hear of too may shooters who say that 2950 ~ 3000 FPS with RL26 is their most accurate load. They will say it is their fastest though. I agree that moving to a larger case like the 6.5 PRC is a better path. Or even the 6.5-284 in a long action. [/QUOTE]
