built on a weatherby action with a 26" Lilja barrel it will be used for elk hunting the coastal woods of Oregon After all of my load testing I'm finally done I've settled on 154 gr interbonds with Reloader 26 with a velocity of 3185 bring on 2020 elk season

Looks like a good load. And is devastating on game much like a partition.

I shot 154 interbonds out of an 7mm STW for many years. They never had the long range accuracy I wanted out to 600 yards. So I switched to 162 AMAX And killed several elk and deer with it very well.

I have now switched And settled on the LR AccuBond 175. Suitable Accuracy and terminal performance In one pill.
 
Nice looking groups. If it will consistently do that at 300 yards you will have no problem going to 600. The Interlock and Interbond bullets have killed a ton of game over the years and will for a long time yet. They hold together good at close range and open up well even at 6-700 yards. They are a very good hunting bullet.
