I've settled on 57.7gr of imr4350. 58gr gets me just a touch of ejector swipe and the same speeds as 57.7gr. I'm going to do a little seating depth testing and might run a crimp. But as of right now my 3 shot groups are touching horizontally and 5 shot groups are sub 3/4moa.
This #2 sporter barrel shows heat dispersion after 3 shots anyway.

Try some N560, R17 or R19 if you want a new barrel, sooner.
You're not kidding. I use RL-16 with good results in my 30-06 and 6.5 creedmoor. But holy **** does it burn hot.
Stocky's does have their CFW proof barrels marked down $300. The next one will be a 26" ackley.
R23 sure gets the speed, to be cooler burning than H4831 that is amazing to me.
