[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2995404, member: 68875"] This weekend, I took it to the range to fire form some more brass (40 rounds fired at the same target), and also tested some 140 Hybs in once fired formed brass. I tested H4350 and the "magic" RL26 just to see if the claims of "an additional 100fps" were realistic.

[IMG alt="20231231_161646.jpg"]https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/attachments/20231231_161646-jpg.8310715/[/IMG] H4350 topped out at a whopping 2915fps from my 20" 1:7.5" Benchmark! I was pleasantly surprised. I was hoping for 2850. But best accuracy was at 2880fps. RL26 started out a lot slower than I thought (2750fps), and I was pretty disappointed. So I actually skipped the next charge weight, planning on shooting every other one to see of it improved. Charge weight #3 was 2850, just .8gr over #1. RL26 would end up topping out at 3011fps, but it started to open up. Just a hint of an ejector shine on one case, so it is max. From a 20" pushing a 140 Hyb. Best accuracy was at 2960 and 2982. The RL26 was not as accurate as the H4350 loads, but I think seating depths might bring them in some.
