[QUOTE="318lll9740, post: 1365431, member: 35398"] Got to the range today to validate the 79 gr load and pressure test. I loaded 80-84 of rl33 @ 3.40" and at 82 grains it started showing pressure at primers. Bolt lift was harder, but not necessarily stiff up to 84gr, all shots stayed in a one inch group too at 100 yards. I proceeded to 200 yards with 79 grs of rl33, and printed this group that measured 1.899", 1.635" subtracting projectile, equaling a .81 moa group.

I'm settling on the 79gr load, as I live in Texas, and these cool Pennsylvania tempatures don't exist at home. Using a g7 bc of .26ish, and drops of actual shots at 100 yard, 200 yards, and 300 yards, velocity is right at 3500fps. I will chronograph when I go home for Christmas. [/QUOTE]
