Savage model 16 stainless, 22" Bbl, 1/8 twist. Brass , 308 once fired & formed thru my 260 FL sizer. CCI @ 200 LR primers. Rel 19 powder. Worked up to a max safe load in "my" rifle, 45.5 grs Rel. 19. 2892 fps. Target shot at 102 yds. After several shots primer pockets still snug. Lot's of land here , but lots of trees in the way. My only other shot was at my 424yd target . No problem. Good hit. This bullet appears to fly surprisingly flat. Out of my 260 , a pure joy to shoot. Does have a bit more resistance going down the bore than other bullets but more than makes up for that with it's flat trajectory.
