[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 2012084, member: 33159"] Most monos will pressure out more quickly than cup and core bullets. The exception to this is Hammer Bullets. I used to shoot the 140 gr E-tip in the original factory barrel. I believe I used RL25. Velocity was right around 3300 fps and it shot better than 0.50 moa. Bullet performance was very good on mule deer and antelope. I shot out that barrel and put a CarbonSix carbon wrapped barrel with 1:8 twist on my STW. I pretty much exclusively shoot Hammer Bullets now. I shoot the 177 gr Hunter and I also shoot the 175 gr Hornady ELDX. Both shoot tiny groups. The Hammer shoots .250 moa or better depending upon how I’m shooting that day. I’d use Barnes load data if you want to shoot their bullets. The 150 gr TTSX shot very well with H1000 out of my old factory barrel. [/QUOTE]
