[QUOTE="Brent, post: 30322, member: 99"] Brian, I'm getting about 3015 fps average at 50 deg F with that load, 26" BDLSS. That's the load I listed MV for at 3.660" OAL, but with no pressure data beside it. You can see the same load above that, seated on the lands, was 3082 fps at 62k psi. The only ones I shot groups with were the ones I seated at 3.66" to fit in the mag. They were so accurate with that first load I never even changed a thing, or looked further. They shot as good or better than ANY load I'd ever fired from this rifle, and I've fired a boat load of ammo through this thing working up loads. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] I'm pretty sure brass life will be pretty good at this level, but I'll go up and see how it shoots at about 3100 or so. I definitely will be looking for more speed, I can't expect any better accuracy from it, and I'll drop back down if I loose any. CW, As many guys that shoot 700's and this bullet combo, I know the vast majority don't seat 'em long and single feed them, and they all are getting super accuracy, so I'd say the shoot very well seated way off the lands and you should start at max length your mag allows and see how they shoot.
