[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1265052, member: 13632"] I'm running a Win pre 64 with 26 inch barrel, 215 seated way out in Lapua Palma brass running 2684 fps shooting one hole at 100 yards, 2.5 inches 3 shot at 1030 and just under MOA at 1535 yards for 10 rounds. Using a 12x SWFA SS optic for 140 MOA for hunting and a Sightron 10-50 for target. I also run a lower load at 2460 fps also which I'd also use to the same range because I know the 215 will open at that range, I've actually killed more game with the lower node. The lower load is much more like where a shorter throat rifle will run. It's all about shooting a bullet with BC, you'll still be dialing a pile of MOA for elevation but you maintain much better wind drift compared to other bullets. [/QUOTE]
