    Yes, but it still has to happen. Fingers crossed.

    Shot some more loads yest-
    No velocity increase past 60g of RL26.Happy with these figures for 60g.
    Lightly flat primers- hardly noticeable- no other pressure signs at all.

    Thanks for the update @ANTSMAN
    I was told yesterday they continue to tinker with 26 and it’s putting some off as there are discrepancies between batches?
    Nice velocities there, I’ve begun loading up using the last of my R19.

    Anyone tried 17 or 2213 or 2217 as I have a heap of R17 still.

    7x64 @162 R19 - I’ll load to magazine length while development then go from there.

    Too long for magazine but still not into lands. At magazine length it’s a compressed load.

    Thats typical 7x64 chamber, longer throat than 280.

    Did some load dev for 7x64 back a while now, 2213 was too fast (hit pressure before getting decent speeds), RL19 and 2217 better but knowing what I know now having done load dev for 280AI I’d be focusing on N560 or RL26. Have to get back to the 7x64 and have another play.

    Pointless and clueless.
    Single feed the eld and stack some fat bolders like Partition for magazine underneath it would seem.
