Thanks guys. I appreciate it all, even though I don't understand it all. Though the last paragraph seems to sum it all up & gives me something to move forward with. Thanks Quickload owners (esp...
So, 2225 isn't a goer. The 63g group was poor & then it showed pressure at 63.5g.
As mentioned, we'll explore higher loads of 2217 & look into n560.
Thanks for having a look. We've loaded up some higher charges of 2217 so we'll see if it'll get us to 2900 (safely).
The proposition was a lightweight rifle for multi-day trips that sits just...
Thanks for that. I've done some googling and it appears you're quite right. I'll try & get my hands on some. Cheers
Cant answer at the moment as Phils got it. But from memory its around 3.1-3.2kg with the 3-18x44.
That's some impressive speeds. I hear what you're saying about temp stability - thats the other reason I'm keen to stick with ADI as they seem more consistent. Do you mind sharing what load of 2217...
Its got a 24" barrel too. I agree that 2800 does seem slow & that I was hoping to get around 2900.
