[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1580441, member: 33159"] I've been using RL26 with the 177 gr & 143 gr with single digit ES. Retumbo is also a good choice for the 177. I was getting 3139 fps with the 124gr using H4831. There was another node at 3215 fps but I was at the max and kept getting the occasional sticky/stuck bolt, so I dropped down to the slower node. That was with a 24" factory barrel. I'm waiting on my new barrel installation to be completed (26" Kreiger, 1:8) and then I'll load develop again. I'm assuming I should be able to reach 3200 fps with the new barrel without pressure issues [/QUOTE]
