    Ideal setup mate. I've got something similar in the pipeline. What contour TF is that?

    What a great looking rifle. Just playing with 7 Saum loads again now mine is set-up. N570 looks really good. Norma 7 Saum brass is going great so far too. Quickload suggests N570 will be a good choice of powder, much same load density as 2217 but higher velocity, with 150gn and 162gn in my Model 7.

    RL26...haven't seen that powder - not in QL ? Problem with any RL powder is certainty of supply! *hoarder of RL17*

    N570 no good! Despite suggestion near identical load density as 2217 it is a much thicker extruded powder.

    Couldn't even fit in a mildish load of 68gn.
