[QUOTE="jpd676, post: 815574, member: 27751"] There isn't really a best load, it all depends on what your gun likes. Typically, if you are shooting long range, a heavier, high BC bullet (210 berger, 215 berger, 200 AB, 208 amax) will perform better at long range. It retains more energy and is pushed less by the wind. A heavy barrel will typically perform best when shooting long range. It heats up less and might be a little stiffer. That being said, any after market barrel from a reputable manufacturer will be a good barrel. We could debate who makes the best barrel forever. This all depends on what you want to do. If you want to hunt elk at 1k that should be easy. If you want to set the next world record, you may need to invest some extra cash. [/QUOTE]
