[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1292087, member: 33822"] Correct, I am at 27" barrel length. My barrel has proven to pressure up quicker than normal... all of my accurate loads are at book listed starting loads, and I am very near max pressure. What are your thoughts on 12.3 more grains of powder for 190 fps gain... does that seem to correlate? Or would you expect more velocity gain for those 12.3 grains? Or? Ran some quick energy numbers and I'm at ~5030 ft.lbs while you are a bit north of 5770 of ft.lbs. those 12 grains are getting you over 700 additional ft.lbs of energy. That seems like a pretty efficient use of 12.3 grains.... you are likely running at higher pressure? [/QUOTE]
