Thanks for the info. I ran up to 61.5 with the 160 Accubond and could feel a slightly stiffer bolt lift so dropped back to your same load of 60.5 as I had no ideal what the real pressure is. R26 seems to not show any of the voodoo signs until your really up there pressure wise. Running right around 2950 fps which is what some of my 7RM loads run at so who needs more velocity? The 280 has a 25" barrel vs 7RM at 23" so that accounts for some of the difference. With more load work I think R26 in the 7RM will get me to 3100 but haven't gotten back to that rifle yet.
