[QUOTE="8andbait, post: 1690799, member: 40850"] Went back this morning with Hornady brass and RL26 156 at .050 jump Top left was with magnetospeed shooting 156 and 140 EOL Bullets I had no pressure signs with any loads in the Hornady brass. [ATTACH=full]144862[/ATTACH] Just for comparison I took some 140 EOL’s at .020 jump, RL26, 210M, Hornady brass. [ATTACH=full]144864[/ATTACH] Given an average of 2910 for the 156 and 3050 for the 140, they are basically identical at 1000 yards for impact velocity. Velocity retained at the target means more to me than energy when using long range bullets. They both shoot great so flip a coin, I’ll be trying the 156 on game this fall, I expect excellent performance like any other berger bullet. [/QUOTE]
