My heat treat recipe (from crucible)
for cpm154, I fast ramp it to 1450, hold for 10 minutes then fast ramp up again to 1950F, hold for 25 minutes and then plate quench. This gives me a 61.5 to 62RC. Then into cryo liquid nitrogen for 8 hours. This gives me another point in RC hardness. Temper at 450F twice for a 59RC.
