Thanks very much for that @Puffin! That's around where I was hoping.
I tried the 140gr up to ~45gr if I remember rightly but didn't get good accuracy before I got sticky bolt lift and ejector marks.
I see some of the loads other people run and wonder how they can get so much powder in, such high velocity without pressure signs. Maybe its my brass.
Hi mate, what rifle is this in? I too use 46.5 of 2209 with the old but better 140 Amax but it's a modern 6.5x55 and I did start at 45.5 and loaded up. No sign of pressure in lapua brass.
