    Not really a good powder for this application, start at 32gr and you might make it to 35gr before you start seeing signs of pressure. and 2800 Fps

    RUMs are like woman in Stiletto heals, you know they are going to put you in the poor house, but that has never stopped anyone from pursuing them.

    Also remember that with heavy bullets, the 243 is world-infamous for having random pressure excursions. Keep a very close eye on your Chrono.
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.
