[QUOTE="Tennessee Tater, post: 1229907, member: 54647"] Finally had the opportunity to get to the range yesterday. Loaded 3 at 45.0, then one each of 45.5 through 48.5. Shooting 143 eld-X, with .040 jump. 45.0. = 2652 (clean bore) 45.0 - 2600 45.0. - 2599 45.5. - 2615 46.0 - 2657 46.5. - 2734 47.0. - 2760 47.5. - 2774 48.0. - 2816 48.5. - 2844 I thought that I would have seen more velocity, but I still have room, no pressure signs at all, primer edges still rounded. Going to load some more up, start at 49 and see if I run out of room or hit pressure. Never saw an accuracy node, barrel is new, total round count is 43. It does shoot 140 hybrids and 45.5 h4831 well (fire forming) but velocity is around 2670. Going to give the rl26 a second try, if velocity doesn't get to 2900, with an accuracy node, I'll run the h4831 up to pressure and see how it groups. [/QUOTE]
