Please tell us how they shoot. Also, could you measure the BTO? I'd be interested to know the seating depth. Thanks!

Yeah, I came to that conclusion recently.

Did you try N565?

I got the last box of 175gr ABLRs that Cabela's had a few days ago. It was on sale too!

The you can probably go with a slower powder like N570, but you'll most likely have a full case with a bit of a crunch at max pressure.

What is your barrel length? I find N565 just about perfect for a high density load with 100% powder burn for 175s out of my 22" barrel.

This one?

Do NOT waste your money on the high end GE Monogram. Although my dual fuel range has been awesome, but my 48" fridge compressor inverter fails almost every year and needs a new one. I keep a spare on hand. It has a 20 year compressor warranty, but the rest of it is only 5 years. I bought them in...

Welcome from upstate NY, the eastermost part by Lake Champlain. The other, other NY!

From "H"?

What barrel length? I've tried all of those too, can get 2900fps with all but 4831sc. If RL22 is giving you good velocity, you may want to try N560.

A healthy 69.7gr dose of N565 is putting them in small for me at ~2925fps with my 22" Proof barrel. I wouldn't sweat the velocity. What powders?

I've worked on many big dam projects as a former state administrator, most of which were primarily regulated by FERC authority. One of the last large projects I was involved in before retirement was the review of a long power line project carrying Canadian hydroelectric all the way down to NYC...

I spoke to Nosler last week about this. They have not even tested their 175gr ABLR, or any other than the 185gr, yet in the 7 PRC. They won't be making any 175gr ABLR bullets for another two months as well.

Fix It Sticks are all the rage, and I've seen favorable reviews of their kits. Borka as well. They're kind of expensive. I have Sturtevant Richmont torque wrenches and drivers.
