[QUOTE="Cowcatcher, post: 3287305, member: 43171"] Last week target below. I switched to Peterson brass so I dropped my previous charge weights and started working up again. Color code: Blue: IMR 4350/Hornady 140 eldM Yellow: RL-15/Barnes 140 match burner Top left two groups are imr4350 and RDF 140's. Visited with a buddy and he said those bullets needed more jump in his tests. These jumped 50thou [ATTACH=full]145926[/ATTACH] This week I pushed more on the RL-15 loads. Focused on the best imr4350/eldM load from last week. Jumped the RDF's further. [ATTACH=full]145927[/ATTACH] Top left of the target above is factory ammo and a lil scope adjustment. Center target is 10 shots of a load that's been really looking good. I got aggravated about that one that went right. Lol. Top right target I know I caused the low shot. Still no pressure signs to speak of with RL-15 at .3 over Data max. The RDF's do look a little better jumping further I think. These are still wasted bullets at 100yds. However, I'm now ready to stretch a couple of these out and see if it's really been a waste. I don't see too many using RL-15 so it's my favorite cuz that's how I operate. The Peterson brass has less case volume so the RL-15 loads give some room. IMR4350 in Peterson brass is getting compressed just a tick at my seating depths. You can here em shake just a bit but I do feel the bullet push the powder upon seating. That's why I decided 41.2 to be my best option with that combo. [/QUOTE]
