[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 1503742, member: 99519"] My wife's 260 reloaded with rl17 gets in the ballpark of 2900 or faster..dont remember off top of my head....it is a safe load in her rifle and shoots really good....i found decent accuracy with my 65284 with rl26 around 2960fps...but needs to be refined a touch more.... I would really like to know if anyone has shot their 26nosler with rl26...as accurate says it is made for magnum cartridges...... Right now with rl33, 75gr it spitting 3200fps....what i can't figure out is why at 100 yards it shoots 1-1.5"....but at long distance it's likes to suck them in tighter....first time shooting it at 1000yds plus it took me five shots to hit the little rock....first two were without wind correction..hit about 20" right..third with wind correction shot right underneath poa...140ab... Shot with 140 Berger same wind and hit 1/2 the distance of 140ab... Corrected for wind and spun the rock around... Again...that was first time shooting over 1000yd.... 26nosler isn't what you are asking about....but I also had only 19.25moa from site in at 200yds......my 65284 has over 23moa to get that far....which I plan to improve upon....
