Yes very very true, always take others powder charges with a grain of salt and always work up from a few grains lower. Brass, chambers, throat lengths, powder lots, and even actions in some cases...

chainsaw, ok my just touch oal with 180 eldm is right on 3.3", and I was running an oal 15 thou off that.

My barrel has a pretty long throat, I'll double check my just touch length and let you know,

What bullet mate,

This barrel has a very long throat, i can seat 180 eldms right out in the neck only and only just get close to the lands. I'm certain this long throat helps it pickup velocity, and i believe it was...

Pretty good, all but one of those ladder test shots made one big ragged hole. I haven't done any further testing with this load as yet, but will be before F-class starts again in September, as I'm...

Yes, i was impressed too, as a comparison my 7SAUM runs 3050 fps validated out past 1,000 yards, from 63gr of re26

Prob best to start a gr or two less than where I did, my barrel has quite a long throat, but my coal was very close to your 3.13"

...

I'll take a look at my load record book and come back to you

Yep same!

I've run Re26 with both 162s and 180s in my 22" 284 if that helps

Very close to Saum velocity with 162's
