[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1139495, member: 33822"] Interesting you can get so much RL33 in there with a 300 grain pill. But, I have never shot a 300 Berger... I do shoot the 300 Accubond with RL33 max load at 97 grains And 2900 fps out of my 27" Hart barrel. And groups were not all that good so probably over pressure. I backed off to 93 grains and I'm shooting groups in the .1's at 2780 fps. I love this powder. I did try the 285 Barnes LRX with 33 and I had trouble squeezing in enough powder. My accurate load was compressed so I dropped the powder through a 2 foot long drop tube into the case. That helped and the load was just barely compressed. Good luck let me know what you figure out.
