Your primers OK at that speed? That is crazy. My Howa guns are working hard at that speed.

Sticks! Now that I'm in AZ, you're 3:30am post was at 2:30!
Primers looked absolutely fine. I ran the ladder from 30.4 to 30.8 in 0.1 increments and 30.8 gave me a bigger velocity jump (from 2631with 30.7 to 2648 with 30.8) and some very light ejector marks. The keg of CFE 223 is relatively new and was giving about 20-25 fps more at 70 degrees 30.8 in CO/NM than my first keg, so it is a fast batch. I'm thinking it's a powder that likes to be warm. I've also noticed data for other calibers recently where CFE gives a lot higher velocities than other powders for a given mix. For 6 ARC Hornady has it running 75 fps faster than anything else.
