[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1677424, member: 67552"] Back in the dark ages before RL26 or Retumbo I used ALOT of RL22 in the .264 with a 9 twist and 120, 125, and 130 grain bullets. I had found that at the time the load data for the .264 was pretty weak across all the manuals. I got great velocity and spectacular accuracy with RL22. I shot it at 85 degrees in the summer and -25 degrees chasing fox and coyotes in the winter and never had any over pressure or accuracy issues. I was never able to get either of my.264s to shoot the 140s very well. That could be because back then I was a bit of a speed freak and anything not going 3200FPS caused me to yawn and nap. Maybe my subconscious kept pushing those groups open. If you have the time and are open to a bullet other than the 140 NP the 125 partition, 130 Scirocco, and 130 Accubond are great options with RL22 in the ol' Win mag. [/QUOTE]
