[QUOTE="NEMTHunter, post: 1486791, member: 77631"] Tested loads in a 30-06 with 215 Bergers seated LONG (coal is 3.640) with a .250 jump to the lands. I tested from 56 grains all the way to 65 grains of RL26 with Fed 215M primers and winchester brass. The 65 grain was a compressed load for sure. Not to bad though. I let it sit for three weeks and the bullets were still in the same spot. The 65 grain charge was 2840 FPS out of a 28 inch 5r 1:10 twist barrel. No real signs of pressure. I know hard to believe. The primers looked no different then the 56 grain charge. No smear on the brass and the bolt opened just as easy as it does when it empty. I plan to play around more with the 65 grain load and see what I can get out of it for consistency. [/QUOTE]
