[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1484743, member: 10755"] I dabbled with RE17 when it first appeared, it didn’t out perform my load with RE19, so I discontinued testing it with other bullets. IIRC, it was a good 100+fps slower than the RE19 load with 225gr Accubonds. I run 76gr of RE19, WLRM primer in Rem brass, velocity average is 2892fps in my 26” tube. I would take RE19 every time, of all the powders I tested, not only was it the fastest with least pressure, it was way more accurate to boot as well. Hope someone can give you a load to work from, I didn’t record my results due to the performance being poor, from memory, it ran almost identical to H4831sc, which is another powder I hate due to it NEVER giving me book results in ANY cartridge I’ve ever tried it in. Cheers. :) [/QUOTE]
