Re: Loads...I've tried a several different powders, primers, and bullets. The OAL for all of those loads was set to keep the bullet off of the lands a smidgeon (~.030" or so). The rifle starts to regulate with loads below 2000 fps. How far below 2000 I'm going to have to go to get regulation I'm not sure. But based upon the work to date, I'd guess the velocity at which it will regulate would be in the neighborhood of 1900 fps, maybe a bit less. I've gone as low as 1980 fps so far and it was still crossing by an inch or so. I stopped at that velocity as that velocity is way too low for the use I have planned for this rifle.

Nitrox - I don't know if the Nosler is a problem or not. I don't think so. My smith uses that bullet in the 9.3s' he loads for (custom loading) and has regulated rifles, and has developed loads for that bullet without problems developing. I'm still getting mixed messages re: Barnes TSX and Swift A Frames from the dealer and those on this board, so I plan on talking to the Chapuis folks face to face the end of January about bullets, and I'll make my decision and go from there. I will post on this board the results of that discussion. I will also post the results of the re-regulation and what the smith found while working with the rifle.
