[QUOTE="Bang4theBuck, post: 1878239, member: 73596"] I think you have a winner right where you are. Remember, the 'standard velocity' for 140 class bullets out of a creed is 2710. Add the standard 'reloaders advantage', and that get's you right where you are now. As stated above, accuracy trumps velocity every time. If your velocity was 2680 or something like that, we would all be telling you that there is another node or two above that. You may or may not find another node above where you are now. I guess it doesn't hurt to try, but if you haven't already done it, pull out your ballistic calculator and run the numbers, and see what it really gains you to pick up another xx fps. I have come to realize that the extra effort and components that are burned are better spent at the long range validating dope, and learning the rifle/load. Just my 2 cents. Definitely let us know which direction you go, and what sort of results you get. [/QUOTE]
