[QUOTE="buck8541, post: 2878508, member: 75845"] A group of us fell down that rabbit hole years ago while looking for the perfect antelope rifle. We tried WMR, 780, 870, 8700 and got some eye popping velocities with 140 grain bullets. Despite the velocities we couldn't get any of the really slow powders to shoot accurately, and the velocity deviation was as high as +/- 70 FPS. All four of us settled on 83.0 grians of IMR 7828 and 140 grain accubonds. If I rememebr correctly the velocity was 3300 +/- FPS and I was getting 1" groups at 200 yards. [/QUOTE]
