[QUOTE="NW Hunter, post: 894164, member: 23024"] Firearrow, What is your barrel length? What chronograph are you using? Do you trust your scale? Berger manual says 74.0 grains RE-22 gives 2970 fps in a 26" tube. That being said, I get 3018 fps using 78.9 gr H1000 in a 24" tube with 190 grain Bergers in my 300WM. Berger says 79.2 gr H1000 in a 26" tube gives 2971 fps. So, it is possible to get more fps depending on the rifle. But unless you are using a 28" to 30" barrel, you may be too hot. I have used RE-22 in the past with good velocity and accuracy. In the summer, I started to get pressure signs so I changed to H1000 and have never been sorry. [/QUOTE]
