[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 1332337, member: 13833"] I just tested out RL26 again with WW mag primers and ran 70-72 grs. with a 215 Berger over the mag speed. Looks like the mag primers are the answer although I can't get quite enough powder in to max it out. That does not mean it might not end up being a good choice? Seems Brad got about 26' more mv with 2" extra barrel. That is about what we were thinking. I estimated maybe 15' per inch? Below are the results on the mag speed......Rich Here is your confirmation!! I loaded 70-72 grains RL26 behind a 250 Berger with a WM primer. Looks like about 13' per inch more velocity with your 26". I think we figured about 15'. Below are the velocity results and an Elderberry tree that got in the way:eek: [/QUOTE]
