[QUOTE="D Scott, post: 858547, member: 35050"] JUst out of curiosity, hada smith scope my barrel, Savage LRP 260 rem 1 in 8 twist I have 1500 rounds down the tube, have been loading 44.8 grs of H 4831 SC, with 140 grainers, my velocity has been around 2750 fps, which is close to what the book says, and I am under the max load by 1-2 grains. Any thoughts/feedback ? should I expect more mileage from a 260 ? aside from a few flattened primers I do nt think I have been shooting any hot loads or rapid fire. the accuracy is still very good consistently shoots 1/2-5/8 " groups 2nd question should someone expect more rounds from a custom barrel ? thanks in advance Scott [/QUOTE]
