A +.6 at 3150+ is mighty impressive. Great job....

 

Curious to see how primer pockets hold up with that load...

Me too. Too bad it is not my rifle to put through it's paces.

 

Being a hunting rifle, I am not sure how long it will take to go through the life cycle of the brass, if ever. There are 110ish cases. So that might last a long time. I am on the 7th to 8th firing on my 120 pieces of .300RUM brass, always loaded pretty hot. I was also at about 7 or 8 loadings on my .25-06 Ackley cases that were loaded really hot. 100 gr. @ 3600+ and 115s at 3400. I just bought 100 new Nosler brass 2 years ago after about 10 years of using the Remington brass.

Lance, I appreciate this as well as your other loading threads.

 

Did you have the Ackley Chamber on the 25.06 done here in AZ? If so, may I get the recommendation?

I used to get 6-7 loads out my 7-08 before the pockets would loosen up.
