Hmmm. You have room to increase charge, if you so desire.

I've been able to increase charges in all my #1s except this one. I've hit 3150 but getting over about 69.5 the action gets pretty tight.
I use257 AI IN My Roberts and with the 7x57 I get 2900 with a 150. This one doesn't like to go over 3k.
Thanks for running the numbers👍
