[QUOTE="Bowfishn, post: 1300807, member: 56875"] I got in some of the Hornady brass, it was about the same weight just a bit heavier and the cases varied 5 gr. total so I decided to stick with the Nosler. I got a 6" drop tube that allowed me to get the 49 grains of RL26 in without pushing the bullet back out. I didn't think I would be able to shoot the 48.5 and 49 grain charges because I thought I may see signs of pressure. From 46 to the 49 they all ejected fine no sticking cases and the primers and brass all look the same from the lowest to the highest, primers were tight and no marks on the head stamp. From what I saw I will try working around the 48 grain load up and down a few tenths as well as try seating depths. I think I can get ES and SD down some with better case prep. and my Digital Scale was not as accurate as the new 1010 I got. After getting it set up properly it is very easy to see plenty of movement with only one kernel of the RL26. The 49 grain load would make a great 100 to 600 yard hunter. I may get some of the Lapua brass some day and check out loads with it. [/QUOTE]
