[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 1677594, member: 61747"] So I made it out today and shot retumbo, rl26, and h1k with 215’s and 147’s. My coal was 2.998 which .040 off. Virgin brass and testing in .5 grain increments to see where approx max charge is and breaking in the barrel. I am pretty sure it’ll settle in around 2900-3000 and thinking 2950 is likely where it’ll settle in. If a guy goes 140 then 3k is a definite. Anyway I noticed I was getting some pressure with retumbo over 2900 and h1k and rl26 were not yet. Was shooting 350 and just seeing how they grouped for giggles. I love the sound of steel and hate shooting paper [/QUOTE]
