[QUOTE="PartsJr., post: 2455233, member: 87242"] I was shooting the 145 LRX behind IMR4831 in my .280ai. I got decent groups, around 5/8-3/4” groups at 100 yds, good but nothing to brag about. Velocity was around 3050fps. I decided to switch to a more temperature stable powder and go with H4831sc. I figured if I’m switching powder I’m going to try the 139LRX. I like the idea of more velocity. For my shooting distances the slight reduction in BC is negligible. I haven’t worked up a load for these yet but am looking forward to seeing how they perform. If I’m not happy, I’m thinking if trying hammer bullets next. Good luck. Let us know what you go with and how they perform. [/QUOTE]
