[QUOTE="Bowfishn, post: 1288658, member: 56875"] I tested out some loads the other day to see what it would do as far as velocity out of my 6.5 Creedmoor 26" barrel. I was using 140 gr nosler rdf with br2 primers, in Nosler brass seated 2.870. I let them get good and hot with my truck running and the heater on so I could get a better idea of pressures in the warmer weather. I would take 5 from the truck put them in my pants pocket and take them one at a time out and shoot them in a warm chamber. gun) 47gr. 5 shot av 2881 47.5gr 5 shot av 2924 48gr 5 shot av 2968 48.5gr 5 shot av 3006 None of the above showed any sign of pressure problems. I have some Hornady brass coming in that has more case volume, will try 48 to 49.5 in them. I was using a Magnetospeed for velocity checks. [/QUOTE]
