Hey mate I'm getting around the 3000fps mark with 2213sc and 162 eldx. In my rifle it gave better accuracy than 2217 or 2225. You should be sweet

Again no hate but I would be very cautious that is well excess of max load recommended by ADI

Danny the IMR and H4831sc data is different, the (I) i believe is warmer by 2 grains.
and many people ive spoken to are runnin well over ADA max for 2213sc , this is not the first ive heard 69 gr pop up.. mostly chasen the velocity but also the pressure of 64gr max is not very high considering the cartridge limits? it seems.


lol, no hate.

thanks for the info Link!

LOL i see
DANNY got banned....
NO hate.

Cheers man, what length barrel was that, 26 yeh?

i wont be upset if its 2900, but if it were closest to 2999 the better .

i dont think i'll ever really know, i have some fellas who use that quick load an can punch in details to get a ball park with tested bullet drops ,but thats about all it is i spose. ball park.1

from all of that me 7-08s around 2750 fps ish with 140s, mild load, from some testing with hold over it was around 40-45 inch drop at 400 meters, im usin a moa dial scope so im goin to start using yards now just to confuse the issue in name of fair chase, an i will be attempting to dial in the critters, so shouldnt be a issue if its 2850 or 2950 reallyyyyy , couple more clicks now, whereas with me hold overs... id want it flat as it could be an would proberly be better off looking lighter projies. but i am keen to try this dial stuff, 400 yards for a while etc,

alot of kiwi hunting is out at that 400 yards most times, 500 yards is all i will need

let yas know an il be sure to ask a few Qs
