good to hear about the trigger! im holding off on the next range trip till i get it..but i ordered it yesterday...shouldnt take too long to get here...

my RE15 load densities are high...with a max of 59 as per noslers 6th edition and 225gr accubonds, id be at 101%...

i got loads worked up to test...i have a buddy that handloads and has more remington pumps than your average guy (collector but shoots a bunch of them..and his entire family and camp does as well..) he says hes never seen one that didnt like loads close or at max levels...so we'll see...i think on a good day, that 57.5gr charge would print a nicer group...and the bore is still new so it can settle down there as well...

cant wait to see what i can get outta the rifle...looks promising so far though...just gotta keep range sessions short or suck it up...57.5 was a bit stiff...im not real recoil sensative...but ive heard alot of complaints about the whelen...and i can see why...59gr and its gunna hit a little bit...and i dont like hunting with rubber recoil pads..they snag when i shoulder the gun where plastic ones slide into place...i think i'll be fine...just gotta quit when i start feeling it so i dont start flinching...but im usually fine with recoil...when i rattle a tooth loose i might back off lol..
