    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    Try as I might I just can't get shooters to believe RL33, vv570, and US869 doesn't work south of the Arctic Circle. I never even seen the first two, but I did get three pounds of 869--maybe half pound left now. I'm getting 2990 with 106.7 gr using 300 Berger with Bertram Brass out a 30" Hart. Haven't got enough rounds through the rifle to be confident in the accuracy department with 869. H-1000 just doesn't do very well in any way for this rifle.

    Quick correction: NOT 2990fps, but 2927fps, single digit ES, Federal GM215M, and COAL of 3.885. Seems I did try Retumbo and if I remember right it behaved worse that H1000; that record is misplaced, but I can reference it via my targets. Must have a half pound of that. I will need to retest all powders used as I've refined my reloading techniques somewhat particularly the shoulder bump... I'm hoping for 3000fps and single digit ES with the 300 Berger OTM, probably unattainable, but the next challenge is to develop my shooting consistency and accuracy. RL33 may just get me there in this rifle--if I can ever get my hands on some. Meanwhile I'm sure liking the road to that goal; might just be better than attainment!
