[QUOTE="LongBomber, post: 2055197, member: 14435"] In a 26” barrel you can push a 140 over 2900 with rl26, the three rifles I have tried it in all hit the start of stiff bolt lift around 2950, and that was with a very compressed load. I didnt find it to work that well with the lighter bullets from the 6.5cm’s I have had, you can’t get enough in the case. RL17 will get you over 3k with a 130. I have to agree that Given the same bullet (say berger vld) swapping from a 130 to a 140 is a wash ballistics wise. [/QUOTE]
