[QUOTE="vancewalker007, post: 2657760, member: 66917"] I had the best luck with IMR8133. Unfortunately, 8133 has been discontinued. I also shot H1000. I shot 50, 60, 70 and 80 off (Barnes suggests not going tighter than 50 off). I found 70 off with 60.9gr of 8133 to shoot very good. It was around 1/2 MOA at 200 yards with a velocity of 3170fps from a 26in barrel. It was very compressed. I used a drop tube and tapped the cases to push down the powder as much as possible. I'll have to look in my book later for the H1000 data. I worked up from 59gr to 60.9 of 8133 in a OCW style ladder test. [/QUOTE]
