[QUOTE="300 Driver, post: 1228437, member: 91257"] I currently shoot 105 Amax at 3100+ with R-26 using less than the Alliant listed max. My rifle is a 1:8" twist. With the 1:10" twist I wouldn't go with the 105 though. Try the 87gr Berger or the 90gr swift scirocco/90gr nobler accubond. I have killed plenty of deer with the 90gr ballistic tips out of a Browning BAR with 1:10" twist. They shot sub moa all day for me in that set up. If you want speed out of your 243, Alliant's R-26 shoots 200fps faster than anything else with heavy bullets, but R-17 may be best for the 87/90gr pills. Good accuracy for me so far with both powders, but 17 is temp instable. I use Lee collet dies and shoot just under .5 MOA over the last 400 rounds so far. Have fun shooting! [/QUOTE]
