[QUOTE="mulie03, post: 117388, member: 6013"] I too had issues with re19 and 123 lapuas with accuracy. i noticed the extreme spread was crazy, so quickly dumped any further development and went back to my favorite===39.0-40.0 grains of Varget and 120-125 gr. bullets will give you bughole groups guaranteed! (if it doesn't sell your barrel) previous load will be around 2850-2930fps. H4350 will get you the 2950-3000 easy. I got some 123's going 3150fps from 24" barrel with max load of H4350. [i]Thats a laser load, proceed with caution! [/i] I use remington brass, CCIBR2 primers 1-8.5 twist 3 groove pac-nor. Savage action. Also you may consider the 140 AMAX, it is deadly on any game and can surely take a red stag. I've killed several mule deer with them and an completly happy with results to 400yds. 45.5 gr RE22 gives me 2775fps, best accuracy and decent ballistics. You can jump it up another 125-150fps pretty easily with H4350 or RE19 or more Re-22. [/QUOTE]
