Just ordered 200 275 grain Rocky Mountain Bullets-Ouch they are expensive, but boy are they accurate (better than any other bullets tried), work good on game, and have an awesome BC
With the 275 grain Rocky Mountain bullet (BC .917), it uses 145 grains of VV20N29 for a MV of 3320 fps.
With the 275 grain Rocky with a 100 yard zero it only takes 15.25 MOA for drop at 1000 yards with a 2.5 MOA (just under 27 inches) wind correction for a 10mph FV.
Impact velocity at 1K is 2438 fps.

A floor?!!!!
Wow! You've been busy!
By the way, I'm giving you crap. But, my cave doesn't have a floor either. Just lanes.
Lord, make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hands faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those that wish to do harm to me and mine. But Lord, if today be the day that you call me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass.
You noticed I only showed a small amount of floor space

Those bullets are almost too nice looking to blast out of a rifle. Almost....... Otherwise, I guess you could string a bunch of them together and use them to decorate a Christmas tree.
Out of curiosity, if you care to let it out before you get it, which Redding press did you go with? The 700 Ultramag?

Awesome. I figured as much, considering the application. Redding makes some nice stuff, as you obviously already know.
I should have saved a little longer and got a T7 instead of the T-mag I got. Not that my T-mag is bad, but I'd rather have the Redding.
