[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 1781276, member: 74061"] My very old 264 sporter mag model 70 spent most of its life killing deer with 120 Nos BT over 58g of IMR 4350. I still have my notes from the work up I did 15 Nov 87 which was a cool windy day in West Texas. Sub MOA groups on a sporter barrel with a bullet that killed deer like poison. I never changed a thing for over 30years. Only recently I decided to upgrade to newer powders and bullets. It’s a little long in the throat, but not burned out. I have found it likes 64.6 H1000 behind the 143g ELDX 3020fps. But I also had almost identical results with 66.2g Magpro 3015. Imr 8133 fills the case at 62.2 and starts crunching during seating ...best speed I got was 2900 but they were very consistent. Retumbo SD was too high and I gave up on it. I scored a pound of RL26 and some 7977 last week. I will give them a try next week. [/QUOTE]
