I am going to be loading the 123gr Hornady HPBT in Lapua cases w/Rem 7 1/2 primers.
I would also add, the max load in the Grendel Reloading Handbook had a reported COAL of 2.275
The data I generated was with a COAL or 2.366
I have already loaded up 3 rounds each at 32.8 and 33.1, weather permitting, I intend to light them off tomorrow. Since there was no pressure signs with the last four shots and their POI was virtually identical to the 3 shot 32.5 group, I have high hopes of finding something usable around there.
