[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1897335, member: 104363"] I have a later stainless version of the same rifle. I have a comfortable 3600 fps load using Sierra 55 gr HPBT, Varget and CCI 200 primers. Its just below max data, but no pressure signs at all. Others like H380 and many different component combinations. So, I would recommend a 300 yard ladder test of 10 rounds (+ 5 identical cartridges for sighters and foulers) working up from minimum to max looking for pressure. Measure speed all the way up. I use a well protected go-pro camera to record strikes on target. There, you can find your velocity and vertical flat spots.. My rifle likes 3600fps but your accuracy node will vary with your component packages. If you want more info on camera set up, let me know. It's a devastating cartridge for varmints and can be used on deer, within reason. [/QUOTE]
