Well, I think I’m done with this combo. I Used another 10 shot load development and a fairly decent spot jumped out pretty quick.

83.8 jumped out pretty decent.

I then tried the same seating depth again on my next trip out.

3.535

I was just about ready to stop right there but decided to try the next two shorter loads.

And finally 3.515”

Very happy with all three and the Bullets themselves don’t see to be super picky with seating depth either. I’m pretty happy with nearly 3100 and them shooting so well. Looking forward to seeing them at distance.

You're there with 83.8 gr RL-33 beretzs, with confirmation groups too boot, the 3.535" load would be the stopping point for me, 175 grains at 3100 is gonna smack plenty hard for a bull elk out to 600 yards.

I may have a larger sizer ball in my die than you, I can barely get a .281" pin in, and with no donut feel, hope my 160 accubond load with 85 grs Rl-33 at 3258 will hang with the big 175's for odd angle heavy game shots should one arise, I may try some 175 Partitions to 3100 and see how my rifle likes em, I'm hoping it's gonna be tough to go wrong with any of the three bullets listed.
