the 200eldx's- are you measuring to ogive or to tip? check that your not in to the lands at mag length
depending on how old they are Hornady had a few issues with differing ogives on some of the early batches and was screwing with my loads too.

Handle the Jandle, or get off the Beach

These are fairly new, definitely weren't jammed into the lands, I measure to the ogive.
My jam or ogive measurement is 2.300" I was seated at 2.244" so effectively 56 thou off the lands not close by anyone's standards
The new ladder I had to work backwards as I only had a COAL measurement of a factory loaded round which was 2.875" COAL which worked out at 2.165" ogive.
Ughhh new barrel and new brass.....I'd rather workmwith a fouled barrel and 2x or 3x fired brass![]()
Tomorrow is a new day and I'm confident I'll get to the bottom of things![]()

Funny enough at 60.5gn I was getting 2652fps with an ES of 21fps so your not far off the money.....I think part of my issues with weird spikes is due to inconsistent sizing of the new cases, after tomorrow's ladder will try annealing the once fired cases and resizing them.
In answer to your first question no I don't have GRT
Funny Hornandy load data shows a max load of 61.7gn of h4530 which is 2209 equivalent as far as i know.
