[QUOTE="goose, post: 324722, member: 14402"] I developed my load from a ladder test for OCW. As I have read, there were two "nodes" where POI and velocity were close. One was on the lower end of the charge weight, and this load was close to the top. I could try the lower charge weight, but my rifle only produces 2850 shooting the 168VLD with the 70gr load of H1000. I was hoping for more out of the 7mag, but the advertised 24" barrel length includes the muzzle brake, so it's really more like 22" from the bolt face to where the brake starts. I am using a lee collet die and not much neck tension, much less than my other rifles using FL sizing dies. Will that cause problems trying to edject a loaded round jammed into the lands? I should be able to shoot this weekend, will keep you posted. [/QUOTE]
