[QUOTE="wilkup, post: 1247052, member: 74276"] I'm all set to try some *HOT* loads with my 180 Hybrids in the next couple days. I've got 65, 66, 67gr of RL26 to try out after seeing how the 67gr performed with the Sierra 140gr SBT, I'm eager to check out the performance with the heavier Berger round. I'm hoping for 3150', but would be happy if I hit 3100+ fps. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect those speeds after hitting just over 3000' with my 63.5gr load of RL26. The barrel has been broken in now and I expect it will handle the hotter loadings =) Will keep y'all posted on how things go. I'm planning to get a brake thrown on the end of this barrel in the next week or so as well to help mitigate recoil, as these hotter loads are taking recoil into the realm of discomfort. [/QUOTE]
