mine are a full grain hotter like dennis said you need to work up your load watching for pressure signs as you go.
lapua cases (large primer pockets) neck turned primer pockets uniformed and sized with a bushing die w/ a .334 bushing
fed 210m primers
155 gr. amax heads sorted by ogive
46.0 gr varget
seated 2.218 ogive or for MY rifle .005 off the lands using a micrometer seating die
then check for bullet run out and adjust it accordingly(hornady checker)
i anneal the brass every 3rd firing
i also ultrasonic clean the case then tumble in dry media to get all the crude out of the cases
@ delaware ken this load has no problems getting out to 1k just remember with the lighter bullet wind reading and waiting for that right wind is a must i have waited what seems like forever for the correct wind inications to come then put as many as i can till it changes. i spot for my son using my .223 and i'll tell him to hold then when i tll him to go for it he'll real off a 5 shot group like its nothing using 75 gr.or 80gr amax heads.
for me this load chrono's @ 2925 fps
but again like dennis siad start and work up then start seating the bullet in and out to get that final load
