4831sc is my powder of choice for that caliber . i have ran light and heavy benchrest rifles with different barrels and all seem to like between 65.8-66.5 grains of 4831sc .. that is a hot load and brass life is the price you will pay but they shoot great . i know its not necessary to run them that hot but it has worked out for me. velocity from 2940-2965

How many firings brass last?

I haven’t run 210’s.

But I am running 215’s and RL-23 gets me more velocity and less pressure signs than 2213sc.

Could only get to 2900fps with 2213 before excessive pressure signs. Can get to 2990fps with RL23

Picked a load with RL23 that’s running around 2900-2910fpa

How many firings brass last?

In my experience primer pockets will hold up to 7-8 firings but the problem I have is the brass cycling smooth . Even with resizing with custom dies after 4 firings or so I have not been able to get rid of clickers . Small base die will help but still not smooth
