    Ok ran a ladder test with the RL26 and the results were a tad confounding!
    180ELDM in norma 300 Saum cases necked to 7mm 1x fired and FLRS fed 215 primers.
    Using a magnetospeed crono
    gn fps
    60.0 2511
    60.5 2462
    61.0 2509
    61.5 2570
    62.0 2578
    62.5 2634
    63.0 2622

    162 EDLM same cases as above
    62.0 2630
    62.5 2590
    63.0 2674
    63.5 2707
    64.0 2696

    These velocities are well down on what I am getting with Superformance 62.5 = 2950
    2 groups with the 180's
    60gn - 2495/2466/2495 SD 28 - 1.05moa
    61gn - 2536/2529/2536 SD 3.8 - 0.6moa

    162's
    62.0 - 2636/2637/2605 - 1.0moa

    No cratering/flattening of primers, extractor mark etc.

    Hmm - I have not seen an increase in powder by a grain resulting in a drop in velocity before. Any suggestions as to the rookie error I might be making?

    Cheers AMac
