[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 2706233, member: 10429"] I think the super may be ok but I don't recall using it. I've used 57gr of Retumbo, and 49 grains of Hybrid 100V. The 100V ran about 50fps slower than the retumbo. I also did some testing with RL26 which produced the best velocity. Also 4831SC gave me good results but I think it came in about 20 to 30 FPS behind the 100V. 100V gave me the best groups and a descent speed on the 140 for a 24inch barrel. My gun showed pressure a little earlier than most with all powders. I ran it around 2865 If I recall correctly. It lasted producing good accuracy to about 4500 rounds. Was my favorite gun to shoot. Mild recoil and was able to spot hits at 1000yrds in the scope. Not sure about the 143ELDX but the Berger 140 VLD with a 1/8 twist was magic. Also get some good Lapua brass. I got 10 reloads out of each case. So a box was generally good for 1000 rounds if you were doing minimum shoulder setback and trimming to length Also not running the case at max pressure helped a lot as well. [/QUOTE]
