    If you haven't already done so I'd download the data from Ramshot and study it

    46.9gn-52.1gn is their data for 58g v-max, hence the question of looking a bit too full ?

    Thanks Steve.

    Having only loaded 223 with the n120 data you gave me there is plenty of space left, then with this new 243 load there hardly any room left for the bullet , suppose i'm just not used to seeing it like this.

    Looking on the Hawke trajectory data from 3700-3750 fps and zeroed 1" high at 100 yds with Drone Pro height being 2.6" i still have a point blank kill zone of 280-290 yds still keeping in inside 2", so not that important to screw the nuts off it.
