[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 2006421, member: 109476"] I have a 6.5x06 24" 1/8 , stainless bbl on a Ruger action. I list this because both cartridges are near identical in performance. I use CCI #250 LR mag primers with Rel 26 & the Nosler 140gr AB bullet. My chrono reads 3075 FPS, & zero over pressure signs. A sweet , flat shooting load. Almost forgot to mention, sub 1/2" , three shot groups. This is a hunting rifle , not a competitive rig, I don't shoot barrel burning five shot groups. Another load Ihave that also shoots great in this rifle is the Hammer 121gr ( designed for 1/8 twist ) using IMR - 4350, CCI #200 LR , for 3238 fps. Now I would guess H-4831 would come close to this velocity in a 24: Your's being a 22" bbl. might fall a bit short. Shot my elk with this bullet last season. One shot complete pas thru of both front shoulders. [/QUOTE]
