[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1588172, member: 78056"] I'm curious to find out how it shoots. I'm pushing 210 Partitions out at just over 3000fps with IMR4831. W760 was a bit faster but not as accurate. It likes these 210's and as long as I do my part it will shoot them into an inch all day. 250's don't shoot as well (usually less than 1.5" but not by mych) but the best velocities and accuracy was again with the IMR4831. I haven't tried any of the newer powders, too many other projects going on. This rifle also loves the Hornady 225 flat point bullet, which I use for plinking but I only hunt with the Partitions. It's just a plain jane Ruger 77 although I did have the barrel & action cryo treated years ago. Can't say if it did anything, at least it still shoots the same! Please don't ask for load data as I'm pretty sure it's a bit over book max but no pressure signs and the brass lasts for quite a while. Considering how often I put the hot loads through it, I'm not in the least concerned. Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
