[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1368219, member: 22069"] You may wish to consider trying RL-17 or H100V with the 95's and 100's. Both powders are known to work well in short barrels and should give you good load density. I have been working with RL-17 and the 95 VMAX's in my modern-actioned 6.5x55. Though max is north of 3600 from a 26" barrel, best accuracy seems to be showing up in the mid-3400's at very sedate pressures. With your setup, 3250ish should be achievable. That would give you drop and drift numbers roughly equivalent to book data for a fast twist 22-250 shooting 69's. Not bad from an 18" barrel. [/QUOTE]
