Yep, that must be putting the hurt on his brass and throat.

With the very high BC there’s no need to send them any quicker than 2850-2900, or to over twist them. I run them in my 7 RM at 2840 in an 8.7 twist barrel and never had a failure.

28" barrel, 2225 and mag primers. Still gets 4-5 firings per brass. He loves to make things more exciting and that load certainly is. Knocked a tahr over at 1140 though so certainly does its job

Ahhh..... 28” barrel will help with velocity.
