[QUOTE="Ron Simmons, post: 1350471, member: 102769"] i had a custom 264WM put together last year. I tested 143 ELD-X with several powders; Retumbo, H1000, RL26, and H50BMG. I could never achieve the level of a combination of accuracy, low ES and velocity I was looking for. I'd get one of the three. I was about ready to pull the barrel and move toward a 6.5x284 then decided to try the berger 140VLD with H4831SC. Pure magic. Benchrest accuracy with respectable ES and velocity. 26" Benchmark 1:8 twist Nosler Brass, annealed and sized for even 0.002 neck tension Federal 215 Primer Berger 140VLD seated 0.010 off H4831SC, 59.5 grains, 3090 fps 3 shot groups go into one ragged hole at 200 yards. It's repeated this several times. This load is about MAX in my gun. Getting light extractor marks at 60 grains. Running pretty high pressures for H4831SC but oh so sweet. [/QUOTE]
