Right very straight foward . Forget what you think you no. (No offence ment even if it sounds offensive)but that knowledge isnt going to to be necessary start at mag length you "shouldnt" be disappointed iv loaded for countless tikka 7RM a sako a7 and my own sako finnlight and a remington 700 atr using the tikkas mag as my oal all outstanding

Shooting group went well. Last shot the bolt was ever so slightly harder to open but still pulled it up with out being forced.

tightend it up well thanks guys

Brilliant good shooting

Second that. Excellent.

Very tidy, was that at mag length or saami length ? If your bolt was a little tight be interesting to know what your velocity is at now ? You could back off the charge in .2gn increments if you are close to or above max pressure to give you peace of mind if concerned.
Hot rod loads are all good if carefully worked up to but they are hard on brass and throats.
No hate man that's a brilliant group.

Mag length, 3.370 overall managed to work in my tikka mag, think il just stick to these ones I'm thinking. Been mucking around for a while so happy with these ones..thanks everyone for their input iv taken it all on board!

And that's just one group of the first ones iv shot, I havnt shot any more of this exact load... it might of just been a fluke haha. Will test run out at longer range and see how they perform on paper.

I could give you a loan until you can replace a box of 100

Thanks mate these ones got seem to be good so il just run with this new recipe. Just want something half decent for my hunting set up

Same 70.5 gn of 2217 load?
