Job done!
What reload data did you use, of course not to recommend said data without proper Laos developments first and all.

Flys ect for the cheap tips.

7mm Dakota Recipe for load data.

I have read all six pages and still have no clue what you guys are fighting about.

my results with a-max have been similar to my results with NBT's. edging a-max to be slightly less robust.
