25.0 H335 and 85 NPT was popping primers but went 2,781 in my 1:9 22" MR contour. Switched to BR primers and it helped, but FP needs to be bushed.

Other loads I've monkeyed with:

55 NBT 27.8 H335 @ 2.272 = 3,129 FPS
80 TTSX 24.0 H335 @ 2.390 = 2,730 FPS
95 VLD 24.5 H335 @ 2.513 = 2,638 FPS
90 Scenar 25.2 H335 @ 2.488 = 2,800 FPS

Scenars fly like 175 SMK's but without the recoil. Fun rifle though. I built mine because of game regs. The way I figure it, 100 yards with a 6x45 is the same amount of ass as a 243 at 300.

Did a Faux Ti in it and the BC stock I have is a piece of schit. Has a SWFA Hubble on top for fun, but it may get 6x42'ed in the end. Had lotsa mechanicals at the onset but its pretty much ironed out. Did I mention I hate the stock? Were I to do it again, it'd be 1:8.
