A 284 Tikka or some short action with a Baney mag box that allows a 3.100 OAL, a 22in tube, a 168 Berger, and Defensive Edge doing their +P to the throat, I bet you'd be right around 3000fps using RL26.

Excellent! That’s very helpful. Would you say that’s at the upper end pressure wise? If I could duplicate that I would be very satisfied.
I went up to 55 grains and started getting an ejector mark. Backed off to what I felt would be safe in all temps. It shoots stupid good out to 1000yds. Very happy with it.

Thanks for the info! Should work for what I’m doing too.

That sounds great. Ideal for what I’m looking for. And who know what else will be offered in the near future as far as sleeker ogive, will be great to have the flexibility to accommodate future bullets too.
