    QL or GRT help please

    Am trying to work up load for 7PRC using RL22 & 165gn Norma BondStrike pills…. ‘Cos I have decent supply of both. COL is 3.285in, Hornady brass. Hard to find much data on RL22. I’ve got a long range load worked out for 180 ELDMS & RL26 in ADG brass. But want to save the good stuff for long range & find a close range load in Hornady brass. Have run a ladder w RL22 from 65gn up to 66.5, no pressure signs and 66.5gn gets 2900 fps which’s seems slow for 165gn pills (22in bbl). Found some info suggesting that 66.2g RL22 was close to max for 160-165 gn pills ? But speed observed suggests I should be able to up the charge. Any one that could run QL or GRT to get a read on max limits would be much appreciated.
