These squares are 1". Seated 0.050" off the lands, this was the first load tried with this bullet. Velocity is 3485fps from my 25.5" barrel.

Have you tried RL-17 in your Ackley or has anyone for that matter?

I get 3400+ with stupid accuracy in my wife's 22 1/2" vanilla .243 with the 80 TTSX and a max load of RL-17 (I "think" it's 45 grains by memory).

Imagine what your 3+ inches of tube plus your Ackley chamber may be able to achieve - grin...
