[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 653148, member: 48043"] Sorry, couldn't find any Velocity data for 150's in the current rifles, but found some for 130's in both rifles shot earlier this year. Marlin 270-- 55.5 I 4831 ,130 tsx, rem 9 1/2m -- 30 degree temp 4 shot avg 3032 fps tikka 270-- same load as above-- 3 shot average 3012 fps ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- marlin 270-- 58 rl22, 130 sierra bt, wlrm -- 30 degree temp 3 shot average 2941 fps tikka 270 --- same load as above--- 3 shot average-- 2915 fps ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I've been having accuracy issues with the Marlin lately now that it is warmer. It really likes to shoot fouled. The 130's have gone to pot, and it'll do just over an inch with the 150 load I spoke of earlier. The tikka just keeps tossing little bughole groups with both 130's and 150's Just found some data with the Marlin and 140 accubonds from Jan 2, 2012 at 18 degrees. 140 accubond, 55.5 7828, and a wlr gave 2741 fps and a 1.7" group. I should have tried more powders and charges, but these were left-over from an older rifle of my brother's. It looks like passing 3K with these rifles and a lead core will get you wanm pressures. I did get the 130 gmx to do 3100 fps in the Marlin with a stout load of I 4831 at good pressures, but I can't find the chrono data. With over a ream of shot targets for my current rifles, I think I need to start notebooks for each rifle. [/QUOTE]
