I have shot many rounds of 80 grains RL-15 with Fed 215M primer. It will chronograph at 2450-2475 fps and has put them touching each other at 100 yards. I can only have that accuracy with 370 grain North Fork, both softs and flat point solids. When I use Hornady 400 grain Round Nose I get less speed and accuracy. I use them for plinking anyway. The North Fork load got me my Buffalo in the Selous.

Good shooting.
