[QUOTE="guns_and_labs, post: 98627, member: 3534"] In a custom Sako I used for competition, I used: Case: Winchester or Lapua, trimmed to 2.15" Primer: CCI 200 Large Rifle Bullet: Sierra 120 gr. Match King HPBT OAL: 2.945" Powder: 36.2 grs. of Hodgdon Varget or 40.5 grs. of IMR 4064 The load was temperature sensitive, but I usually got 2500 fps. There must be better powders now, though. Maybe try something with H4831sc? I also tried a load I got off THR (wildalaska), that used RL22, 43.8 grains. Watch out, though, I tried the loads in a rebuilt Mauser M94, and darned near blew up the action. Always start low and build up, etc. But you knew that...
