This is not a book recipe. It's my recipe. I don't know that this would be safe in any other gun.

80grains US869
F215 primer
Berger 180 Hybrid
Remington case
Load to touch the lands.

I have a long throated chamber so my stuff ends up WAY over SAAMI max COAL.

First off this load was worked up for 1 rifle only.
Rifle was custom built by Twisted Barrel with a deep throat to run longer high BC bullets and the powder charge is way over max load. This load would no doubt be over pressure in a shorter OAL so don’t just go load some up.
Chronographs at 2940 and shoots 1/2 moa.
Hornady Brass
175gr ELD X (At my altitude the corrected G1 BC is closer to .705)
65 grains H4831SC
WLRM Primer
3.490 OAL which is .010 off the lands
Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by an illogical minority, and promoted by an unscrupulous media, which holds forth the proposition that it is possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
