My bbl is 25.5" long and my load is 45.5gr of RL17 .. I have loaded my nosler brass 5 times now with this load and that brass is as tight as the first time I loaded it. I guess Berger is releasing dangerous load data then .. They got 2830 fps with a 24" and 45.9 gr of RL17......
In my 22" tube, 45.6gr of RL17 under a 150ELDX @ 2.800" in a Nosler case gets me 2,770fps and 1/2" groups.
RL17 is "peaky"....pressure can get away from you quickly.
