[QUOTE="Southwind, post: 666391, member: 22614"] Under a minute, I have shot some very good groups with this load in the 1/2" range. My model 70 is a 2004 factory ss rifle 24" with the exception of stock, B&C meadlist, I bedded the lug and floated the barrel. I chronographed this load a few times and have always been right at that 3100 fps velocity. I am very happy with this load. My groups started to spread a little above 66 grains and my best was at 65 so I settled back to that load. I have shot this load at 600 yards at my club and it holds accuracy well but would go heavier if I wanted to shoot further. I have shot it regularly at my gong at 400 yards and it delivers very consistant results. We worked this same load up in a 2011 model 70 ew 300wsm with the same results. However, another friend could not get his Kimber montana to shoot well with RE17. He is still searching 4831 didn't do any better for him. [/QUOTE]
