[QUOTE="KMG, post: 1074137, member: 41928"] Have had several hundred sitting on the shelves for a few years now. Had such good luck with H1000 & 208 Amax's I just stopped load development on my Winny. With all the great results of guys running RL33 & the heavies in 30cal. I just couldn't stand by & not try. So I've just started load work up using RL33 & the 225's. Ran a ladder test @ 300yds in 1 grain increments from 74-81gr & a .015" jump. Nothing too exciting the rounds just walked up the target until I got to 78gr. There was less than 3/4" vertical outside between the three shots. 78 & 79 went in the same hole & 80 was about 2" to the right & with no pressure signs, well just a slight flattening of the primers even at 81gr. Me thinkst I found my zone to work in. I'll be loading up several from 78 to 80 in half grain increments. I'll chrono & shoot for groups. Ill update results later. [/QUOTE]
