[QUOTE="BEEMAN, post: 1342924, member: 38130"] R26 didn't work for me. The x47 case is to small. Worked up to 41 gr and only got 2530 fps. On the burn rate chart 7828 looks similar to R26, but I couldn't get enough R26 into the case to make speed. I will try H4350 and Varget at a later date. The 147's did shoot great though. From 38 to 41 gr all produced one ragged hole. My gun had a 26" 8 twist Broughton MTU contour. It may still be worth pursuing if I could get 2700 fps. Now I'm anxious to try the 147 in my 6.5 Sherman. [/QUOTE]
