    6.5x55AI 147 ELDM out of a 28inch criterion 3048fps - by changing the seating depth from 85 thou to 15 thou I get 3085fps. And this isn't at max pressure.
    RL23 is the powder im using. 3000fps was the goal and im past that from the start really.

    @muzr257 I think I need pics and more info on said firearm......

    I’m at 2790 with 140 amaxs with the Swede and it is a real tight group, consistent and I can actually hit what I want to. The issue is, I only have a few hundred amaxs left.... and I have a itch for something new......
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....
