My 123 gr scenar load is with varget and is making 2950 out of a 22" barrel and a suppressor.

I shoot 123 senars at 3050 out of a 26" barrel. I think your good with yours if you don't show pressure

What is your load if you don't mind me asking?

For my 24" 8.5, #3 nitrided Brux, 2950 is the sweet spot for 130 Berger VLDs. Those velocities don't seem high.

I could step it up a bit with the 136 by what I'm seeing on here I'm not getting any pressure signs.
4350 seems to be the go to powder from what the majority of the post I have been reading.
