[QUOTE="Schnyd112, post: 1339796, member: 90453"] i have a bag of bullets from my late grandfather that he shot out of his .264 win mag. I want to hunt with his rifle and am having trouble identifying his bullets. I know he used h4831 and what looks like hornady bullets. Red, derlin (?) tips, boat tail, 127 grain bullets. These are raw bullets, not pulled, on a verified scale. I thought they were sst's, but am not finding any confirmation that a 127 sst ever existed. Chances are, these bullets could be anywhere from 5-20 years old. They are in great shape and I have hundreds so would like to find a reliable bc. If nothing else, I can use them for fireforming and practice but would like to identify the bullet. I need to verify the twist rate, but would rather shoot bergers and take advantage of the new bullet technology. Still, I want to take advantage of several hundred free bullets in 6.5. I have a heavy barrel .260 that will eat these up. [/QUOTE]
