Mystery solved, gave my cases a bloody good clean this time round with some isopropyl alcohol and shot 60.5 grains of 2225 with the 147 ELD-M for speeds of 2726, 2726, 2710 and 2726. 3 duplicates! Only that one at 2710 to stretch out the es.
No pressure signs today so could probably go further, already over published max but I've noticed the published max loads for this cartridge are around 5000psi below it's rated pressure max.
Must be 70 down the tube now.
I've got some 143 ELD-X coming so will get around to trying them at some point but for now I've got a good load sorted, next I need to get an animal on the deck.
