[QUOTE="Shadow292, post: 2257352, member: 119472"] I've fired around 400 rounds with magpro in my 7rem mag 26in 1:9 Best results were with 168MKs speeds are great there. I wanted to shoot 175-190s so I throated it .185 and got great velocities but cant verify accuracy since I now get mad carbon ring after 20 rounds. I still have 8lbs of it and not sure where to go from here. I'm getting 2800-3000 with 70.3g depending on seating depth and carbon fouling. Lol 2920-2950 @69.7 175 ELD-X And with 190 bergers 66.5g gave me the best results @2880ish. Had heavy bolt lift with 175s and 72.5g @ 3050 Heavy bolt lift with 190s happened with 68g @2940 So my speed at 70.3 and 66.5 are right where I want to be but unless I can figure out how to prevent or drastically reduce the carbon ring I cant gather accuracy. Some advice for my situation would be great. Changing powders I know might help but I have 8 lbs of magpro and alot of data with it. So maybe increased neck tension or deeper seating. Hoping for some sound advice before wasting anymore components Hope this helps. BTW prior to throating magpro did not carbon foul my throat but I also couldnt chamber long bullets either without half the bullet in my case. 🇺🇸 [/QUOTE]
