[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1291918, member: 33822"] My OAL, case head to bullet tip, is about 3.875" with the 250 EH. COAL is about 3.890" with the 300 EH. I was able to hit 3200 fps with the 250/RL26 but I had pressure signs. I ran out of my 1 lb of powder and never had a chance to do any temp sensitivity studies. I did end up working up a load with the 250 and Retumbo and my accurate load has settled right at 3000 FPS. So RL26 seems to get about an extra 100 fps, it's pretty amazing. The 250 also seems to be a bit finicky In my barrel, but been too busy lately to do much work with it at long range. I might end up sticking with the 300 an RL33 because it is such an amazing load.
