I have a savage PC that has been cut back to 14.5 with a fixed brake, it will push a 175smk at 2580ish with a stiff load of Varget, and 130ttsx at 3000 with 50.5 grains of Varget. The rifle is very accurate with both loads. Brass is lapua that has been fired 4 times in kids palma rifle before I get it.
