I have yet to chrony my rifle/load. I’m pretty sure I got the load as a hand me down from BeretZ through some guys on a different forum. It’s works well in my rifle with GOOD brass. Some R-P brass won’t behave well in my rifle no matter what load I use. That stuff found a new home in the trash or pucker brush. Oddly I find the old Colonel rather pleasant to shoot even with heavy loads. Might be the stock. I’ve found other rifles more uncomfortable to shoot in 30-06 and various 300 mag chamberings likely due to poor stock design.


Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
