[QUOTE="MikieG7174, post: 2977480, member: 41714"] First off, it is quite unfair to compare a rifle with 4 lands and grooves with a primitive locking design to a rifle with a 6 lands and grooves and a modern rotory locking design in the accuracy department. The x39 cartridge is what it is because it was designed to be used in a primitive rifle that was made out of sheetmetal with its barrel pop riveted in. Hence the low chamber presures and velocities. 4198 seems to be the choice powder for the x39. I plan to up the pressures and velocity as the rifle i am loading for can handle it. Like i said, the cartridge itseld has alot more to offer us. I have .308 loaded for my FNH SPR bolt gun that i wouldnt dare put into my LWRCI REPR. Rifle design DOES matter. [/QUOTE]
