[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 108888, member: 3249"] Try the 210s w/some Retumbo. In my opinion H1000 is a little fast for this bullet. I'm getting 3200 fps out of a 30" Lilja w/93.5 gr. This may be too hot for your rifle but, I would think 3000 to 3100 fps would be doable in a 26" tube. I've been down the same road your taking. Save yourself some some time and money and go straight to the 200 + gr bullets. Don't pay any attention to drop. Look @ wind drift and retained velocity and energy when choosing your bullet. You will be amazed @ the yardage that slow poke 210gr will pass the speedy 168 gr!! You'll also get a much lower ES and SD w/the heavier bullets. That is VERY important for long range work. You can dope the wind but you can't dope for a high ES. [/QUOTE]
