[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2259990, member: 106514"] Reloader 17 is awesome with the 103 ELD-X. However, if you want a better temp stable powder, someone mentioned H4350 right away, and I can tell you IMR4451 is a well-kept secret. Also out now is Vihtavuori's N555, but I still prefer 4451 to the 555 as of now. Will see if that changes with more types of bullets down range. 41.5 grains of RL17 with the 103 ELD-X generated 3165 ft/s with Hornady brass and a Fed 210M primer seated at .068" off lands at 97 degrees and likely 80% humidity. There was no signs of pressure and QuickLoad estimated just under 55,000psi (FWIW) from this 62,000 psi-capable cartridge in a stock Savage 110 Desert Tactical 26" barrel. Shots were duplicating velocity across the chrono, so single digit ES in mid summer Deep South. [/QUOTE]
