[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1000305, member: 48043"] your 26" bbl'd rifle is shooting slower than my 24" bbl'd one is by around 100 fps. I'd switch to rl50 or h50bmg (getting to a slower powder burn speed range may help with speed while keeping pressures in check). 86 grains of either should do ~3,000 fps with a 175 in an stw. I'd go up a grain on the 168's and down a grain on the 180's.... work up of course. What is your chono's make??? I don't trust some of the cheaper ones as far as I can throw them... [/QUOTE]
