[QUOTE="Code4, post: 537887, member: 26988"] I purchased a mint 2nd hand Remington 700 .264WM a few months ago. It has the factory 1 in 9" S/S 24" barrel and narrow forend stock and I love it. I also believe people like to give this cartridge attributes it does not possess. I achieve from that 24" barrel a safe and accurate 3,014fps with 140 Woodleighs over 66 grains of AR- 2213sc (H-4831sc). [IMG]http://i297.photobucket.com/albums/mm217/Tophet1/Boulia027.jpg[/IMG] Where this rifle really shines is with 129 grain projectiles (Interbonds and SST's so far) over 68 of the same powder for 3,156 fps. This load I plan to use for Springbok in 2014 and similar gazelle/antelpe/deer up to 75kg live weight. This is the niche the .264WM excells at. I have a 1 in 8" twist, 26" #4 Pac-Nor Super Match grade barrel ready to install but it doesn't look like it will be any time soon. [/QUOTE]
