[QUOTE="TMR, post: 225490, member: 5819"] petenz, I have built a few of them now...I run the 130 bergers or JLK's in my rifle at 3000fps. The other 3 are within 20fps of the same velocity with the same load. It is a very consistent cartrigde to say the least. My rifle was a bit finicky during load development, but once I got into the sweet spot, things turned amazing in a hurry. All of the one's I have built so far have 26" barrels. I have some pictures in the gun photo area. I have some 140's sitting here to try with some RL17. Most guys are getting 2950 with that combination. Depending on what you are hunting, that will get the job done. Figure it this way....The 270 winchester has been used on just about any type of game out there. All of the ones I have shot or had experience with shoot between 2900 and 3100 with the 130's. The 6.5 130 has a higher BC and shoots at the 3000fps mark easily. Higher BC, more energy, less recoil, less powder. [/QUOTE]
