OK guys- The NECG sights and second recoil lug are on and I plan to finish steelbedding this thing tonight. The brass problem is solved and it feeds and extracts properly.I need some 750 gr Woodleigh loads to take her on a test drive. What do you suggest!-Rob

My favorite load is 130.0 RE15 with F215 primers. Lightly crimped.

I also use 140.0 IMR4350 with F215.

On a cautionary note, I have noticed that in both loads, the Woodleigh solids create the highest pressure. The TCCI and Barnes solids are creating less pressure than Woodleigh. Hawks are right in there. Woodleigh softs create the least pressure, in my experience.

I agree with 500 grains comments on 585 Bullets. Woodleigh softs seem to generate much less pressure than Hawk softs in my 577 T.Rex. Woodleigh solids have a reputation of generating more pressure than most solids because of their steel jacket.

A word of caution, beware of pressure spikes with Hawk softs especially with Reloader powders.

All I've got are Woodleigh softpoints. Any suggestions for starting loads around 2100FPS. I like to work my loads up carefully.-Rob
