[QUOTE="Joel Russo, post: 187774, member: 6152"] Just like Buffalobob, I too am a big fan of the .240 WBY. My rifle has been custom built by Clarence Hammond and sports a 28" 9 twist Hart barrel. I have it throated for the 105 Berger's. It is my go to gun for varmints, coyotes and the like. I easily get 3380 fps with 48.5 gr of RL22. Yes, I usually only get two or three firings out of the Norma brass, but just like BB said... that's a small price to pay for such a lethal combination of speed and accuracy. I have absolutely no regrets building this rifle, but if I had to do it again, I would go to the 8 twist bbl, set it up for the 115 Berger, and do a no-turn neck. Just my .02 cents. [/QUOTE]
