[QUOTE="DUSTY NOGGIN, post: 2270451, member: 89550"] id like to have one " short answer is a medium burn rate for the bullet weight " id use all same headstamps in a batch -- no mix and weight sort your main goal is to open that bolt without over pressuring after /during open , that will create unnecessary wear and tear i might take 2 approaches to this , try to get data that would mimic a factory round with and average bullet weight of 165 or. find a load to cycle perfectly with higher weight ( while still having factory ammo possibility not having to restrict gas to keep it from ripping the bolt open ) id run some factory in it until you know that gas it cycling flawlessly (record that setting if you can ),.... with that gas block setting i would probably do a minimum only charge weight with all the powders i though were in medium range "powder/action compatibility test" fastest to slower burn rate at mag length and not use any powder that cycled the action with a minimum charge, working up hoping it starts to cycle at the middle of load data charge weights for that bullet .. i say that because i think you'll have better luck not having to restrict it or open it up until it functions ... id be happy camper if i worked up and got to a decent speed and it started to cycle good just before i got to if you see ANY case head damages pressure you gotta stop ... if you see extractor rim ripping or ejector marks you shoulda stopped already [/QUOTE]
