all,

I recently received a rifle I had been waiting on for several months. 264 win mag Supergrade Model 70 with AAA French Walnut stock.

It shoots .25 MOA, no exaggeration, at 200 yards with Nosler Trophy grade ammo. Repeatable.

I had planned to work up a load using the Nosler brass but for my needs .25 MOA is way more accuracy than necessary albeit I'm very pleased.

Has anyone chonoed the Nosler 130 trophy grade ammo out of a 26 inch barrel.

The box says 3100. And if necessary for my CDS dial I'll use that. Due to work and time availability I may have to rather than verify myself as time is elusive due to work and family obligations.

Regards, Aldon

Never a good idea to go off the box. If you don't have access to a chronograph, next best thins is to zero at 100 or 200, then run it out to as far as you can, at least 400-600 yards, and note how much actual elevation is required. Then you can feel good about having a custom turret cut for it.

Beautiful Rifle!
 
I've chronographed premium factory ammunition a few times now. In one instance, the ammunition was 300 fps slower than advertised. I'd wait to get confirmed drops or solid velocities before ordering a dial.
 
Reloaded 100 rds of 264 with 125 GN Partitions ,Rem/700 bdl /24 inch bbl never Chronographed them but the owner sited them in for 400 yds & shot two boss 9 pointers in two consecutive deer seasons , my off the cuff guess with your 26 bbl 3180 ish , but Please crono that Beauty & let us know ok , Remember brake in your bbl proper thks &Enjoy her !!!
