My 16" Lilja 6 arc barrel does 105 gr RDFs with a G7 of .280 at 2450 near max with Varget. My 22" JP Grendel barrel does 123 gr Scenars with a G7 of .265 (what I use) at 2450 with a near max load of Shooters World Precision (which is a Varget clone, but more dense so case capacity isn't an issue using a drop tube). Both shoot sub MOA all day long.
My climate, geography and type of competition rule out use of ball powders, but I did get close to 2600 with CFE and the 123 Scenars in my 22" JP Grendel (which went from 2600 to a very uncomfortable 2650 when the temperature went from 95 to 105) before maxing out years ago. Based on the experience of others, I don't doubt that I would be able to get in the 2600 ballpark with CFE or Lever with the 105s in my 16" arc.
Let's go Brandon!
