[QUOTE="Trm82, post: 2481289, member: 77953"] I just picked up a rem 700 with a premium barrel and it seems to shoot great with good speeds. But I think it’s a pretty tight barrel. I was 3660 FPS with factory 100 tsx. My goal is to shoot the 100 gr ttsx. I tried a starting point 72 gr of RL26 and was nipping on 3680 FPS and tried one at 73 gr and had a little primer blow by. My buddy shoots 75.5 gr in his MK5 ultra light with 100 gr ttsx and he gets 3800 FPS but I don’t think I’ll get there which was my goal. On a side note ! holy crap there’s no 25 cal components available in Canada right now. I hunted for two days to track down and acquire 200 ttsx bullets. I can find factory loaded 100 gr swift scirroco so I’m just going to buy 3 boxes of those and shoot them till there gone and then build a load for this gun. Maybe by then more components will be available. [/QUOTE]
