26” 9tThanks @NVScout . What length and twist barrel? The factory Hornady Match 225 were running 2865 out of my 26" 9.4 twist Proof.

I'd take any data guys have on the 230 A-Tips with RL26 also... Even though my Bugholes rifle was shooting the factory Hornady Match 225 into one ragged hole. But why not waste time that I am already short on!
Testing 212s with RL26 28" Bartlien barrel 1:9 CCI BR primers basic case prep. Worked up tp 81 grns of 26 3200 had light ejector mark no stiff bolt. One ragged hole super low SD. Im going to do another ladder and look for a lower node in the 3100s.
According to QL its just a touch over SAAMi max pressure.Dang.. That is some HOT stuff and super fast. Guess that's what you will see when your getting close to 5grs over max.

YupI dont use quick load but I would be cautious with those loads. Here is the Hornady data for the PRC.
You are seeing more velocity then max loads on a 300 Norma Magnum with those loads and the 212gr pills.
Ive had people call BS on that but its chronied with a V3I dont use quick load but I would be cautious with those loads. Here is the Hornady data for the PRC.

Yup
Another thing weird with this rifle is it shoots factory 212s or 225 @ 3000

Magnetospeed V3Sounds like a unicorn barrel! What chrono are you using?
I feel like maybe i shouldnt have posted the speed...i assume everybody knows start waay low and work up. Never use anybody elses numbers as a target. Every rifle is different.I’ve got a 6 creed with a 26” barrel that shoots super fast too for some reason. I developed a load with the 112 match burners that was 200 fps faster than their max load. It was at 3150. Dropped it down to 3035. Shoots one hole with an es of 5. Also chronoed with a V3. Cant explain it, but I don’t mind it! Lol

Question: Anyone else getting pressure rings at the base just above the webbing 1x fired not resized?
Got any pictures ?
I wish I could answer that with 100% confidence. However, best guess is Tennon 1.503 / Face to Receiver 1.635 so 0.132 +/- with case protrusion .128 +/-. Your question likely just cost me a proper depth mic. Either way, still just curious how many others are seeing this?What’s the gap between your bolt head and the back of your barrel?
Yikes. Yet another reason why I will never use Hornady brass.
What FPS you getting and whats your altitude?I'm pushing Hornady brass with over 80gr of Retumbo and a 230gr A-Tip....and I've never had that happen to me....
What's your trim to length?
Yep, started getting swipe @2950. It seems like soft brass shows earlier with a mechanical ejector slot though.Any pressure issues at 2950?
I have not , to be honest I’m pretty anti-Hornady ..... I’m stuck with the brass until ADG finishes up and the Atips are the only bullet I would use from them. If they didn’t perform I was going to load the Berger’sHave you done any load development with the 225 eld?
We have a scheels where I’m at and they have been price matching powder valleys $71.06 price for me !I was at sportsmans warehouse yesterday. Pick up and fondled a box of 230 Atips. So pretty! Lol. Wife was with me so put them back. She shit when she saw the price. I’ll have to go back solo.
what powder are you using?Finally got the 230 Atips dialed in ! Time to stretch her legs now. I ran them up to 2950 but the accuracy was at 2820-2850.
Anybody got any speed numbers from a shorter barrel? I’m doing a 21” 30 magnum for a hunting rifle and wondering if I can get a 215 around 2750 with a can from prc
Yeah i just have a ton of 215s and a 10 twist rock creek and want to get full stability. Being at sea level I’m probably right on the edge.26 inch tube here... 215 berger at 2980 with 79.26 gr of H1k without pressure even though 1gr over max. I would say you should get it without issue. Only one way to find out, right?
RL-26 right now. I have a stash of h-1000 but am using it on a 6.5 prc. I plan on changing to H-1000 or N570 for the 300 but can’t find it right now.what powder are you using?
N570 is not temperature stable i would stick with H1000RL-26 right now. I have a stash of h-1000 but am using it on a 6.5 prc. I plan on changing to H-1000 or N570 for the 300 but can’t find it right now.
How do you got about ordering rcc brass? Cant figure it out on they’re website.
Trimming to 2.57" - Starts right above 2750 regardless of 200g or 230g pills. Didn't split a case on 3X despite pushing fairly hard (H1000 - 200s @ 3020 / 230s @ 2870). Hoping it's as simple as the brass. Can't wait for ADG to get up an running so I can find out, RCC just isn't in the budget. We already spun a 2nd barrel trying to resolve. Base to datum first one was on the long side of specs (2.21), new one is on the short side (2.197). Same brass sign on both, cut with two different reamers. Interesting Notes : 230 BHT's are better above .080 than below .020. 200 SMK's as expected .010 to .020. 230 SMK's truly need a 1:8. Obviously your results may vary.I'm pushing Hornady brass with over 80gr of Retumbo and a 230gr A-Tip....and I've never had that happen to me....

Better in what way?I will be doing full review here with in a week on RCC brass. Will be receiving brass this week.
Will do full write up and review, if is anything like my friends RCC 338 brass it was better than 338 Lapua brass.
It will hold higher pressure, primer pockets don't get lose as fast as lapua brass, his RCC 338 brass primer pockets are still good after 19 firings.Better in what way?
