I posted this in another thread here yesterday. Today I'm going to run some more with 66.7gr N165 at a longer 3.3020" COAL.

Just ran some N165 thru my 22" proof barrel (~130rnds) ,
175gr ALBRs seated to 3.2600" COAL, or 2.5855" Ogive
Fed 215 primers
Hornady once-fired brass
Temp 52 F

65 gr - 2794 fps
65.3 - 2794
65.6 - 2810
65.9 - 2816
66.2 - 2817
66.5 - 2840
66.7 - 2847 (Hornady book max.)

No obvious pressure signs.

The group averaged 2MOA, but I was in a rush because it was starting to rain. The last two rounds settled in closely. I also changed the neck bushing in my sizing die from .312 to .310, giving me aabout 0.004" neck grip. Maybe a bit much, but the .312 felt really light when seating. That said, I ran ALBRs, seated out to 3.300" with Staball HD and got 3/4" group with the .312 bushing.

I tried some N165 in 22 inch barrel with 162 x just to see how it preform. Went up to 70 grains and got 3090. Have not tried any more yet.
