[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 791409, member: 61747"] Yeah well Hornady box says 3900 but I have no idea what they were smoking when they came up with that number. The chrono showed 3500 and DOPEing this rifle showed the same thing. Drop was way off the mark when I did all the tests. The load of 4064 is .3 inches less drop at 200 and grouping fine. This particular load is faster and just as accurate from what I can see. However, I will test again at 200 and play around. I do agree that Hornady factory is sweet in this rifle and if it had not gone up in price, or become hard to find, I would just keep shooting it. I like the fact I have some options now though. 4 loads, factor, super, 4064, 4895, all shoot the same spot within .5 of each other at shorter range. Good gopher, rabbit, and yotie poppers. [/QUOTE]
