[QUOTE="Huntnful, post: 2166397, member: 116563"] Was doing a powder charge test out of my .28 nosler with 169gr Hammer Hunters yesterday. I run the 180 VLD's with 85gr. of N570. So for the HH I started at 85gr. and worked my way up to 87gr. in .5gr increments. You can see the consistent velocity increase with each .5gr, topping out at 3300 FPS with 87gr. 78fps increase over 2gr. of powder. Pressure signs were MINIMAL. I'm talking no bolt click or ejector mark (maybe the faintest mark, but still can't really make it out). That is freaking smoking fast for a 7mm 169gr bullet. Could be having some fun with this one! Also, all of the shots from 85.5 to 87 were withing a 1/2". So accuracy shouldn't be an issue. 26" 1-8 twist HCA barrel ADG Brass 215M [ATTACH type="full"]265480[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
