[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 3081050, member: 48043"] 2 things I chuckle about on any reloading forum. AI cartridges and using hard brass to make speed because the softer brass shows pressure issues "early". I just steer away and run something with a big enough chamber that I can run it mild (or normal with regular brass) at the speed I want. I'm running a mild loading with h50bmg with my short throat 7rum and netting 2900 fps with the 175 eldx. As far as the o.p., it looks like she's settled in well around 70 grains. It's a bit disconcerting how much speed you are stacking on without moving the powder charge much. A bit slower powder may be in order if you have case capacity to calm things down (x and sd) a bit.
