I cant seem to find any R-15, but I have a few more weeks until my gun is done.

53gr v-max accurate at 3900fps but can push them well into 4000fps.

That Hybrid should be a dandy too.
 
Only with 75gr A maxs..... don't have any pic of final load but its bug holes @ 3700fps with RL-17 and the 75gr A max.

This is some of the load work

3700 fps for a 75 grain is impressive.

Not to steal the thread, but I thought the 53 vmaxs were only supposed to be used at .223 velocities. Am I wrong about this?

I am driving them at 4,000-ish in a 220 Swift with 4007 ssc.
