264 win mag

As an old guy who has been shooting the 264 since 1964. I own four of them. The best powder I have used is VV24N41. One click slower than N570. Drives
the Nosler 140gr AB to 3229 gps from the 26" bbl of my Win EW. Great powder for 120gr bullets & up. Seems to be a very over looked powder. Powder Valley has been my source. They are probably out right now , but they do get it in. O Ya, 1/9 twist & tiny groups.

I was able to get 3 lbs about a month ago of 24N. Got a 26 Nosler in build process that I will be using it in.
 
I do like this gun so far I do have a 6.5 creed more,6.5-06 and a 6.5-284 and I'll probably end up with a 6.5 prc but so far I'm like shooting this the best. Seems they don't get much love but it's been a fun gun when weather changes I'm excited to go out and shoot long range and true the ballistics
I to have a love for the 264 Mag and though I have several other 6.5's the 264 is my favorite. I am now considering getting a Weatherby 6.5 RPM a lengthen 6.5 X 284 I am told.
