[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1051383, member: 48043"] that's what I had to do with my 5010 also. Different lots of the stuff seem to have had different densities. You could exceed 86 gr. on a 175 with some with room, the next lot was heavily compressed and tough to get in the case before 86 gr.. to the o.p.... I've gone to rl25 in my stw for mid weight bullets. I may go to rl26... I have some but haven't worked with it yet. I'm seeing good results with rl50 and retumbo in my 7rum with heavies. Some guys like powders like rl22 and 7828 also... You just need to stay slow enough to keep the case relatively full and use a hotter primer like the wlrm or 215 to light the fire. [/QUOTE]
