[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1422445, member: 87243"] Wow that is terrible that it took that many to find a decent load!!! I am truly sorry....My trued Rem action with an 8 twist Krieger barrel in .260 AI has never shot anything much OVER 1" at 100 yds, and that includes 100 grain hornady A-Max used in fireforming, 140 nosler cc bthp used in fireforming, 140 Berger hvld, 140 Berger Hybrid, 143 eld-x, and 147 eld-m, using 3 different powders!! Hell, most the factory rifles I have done load development for didn't shoot that bad....I would have gone back to my gun smith long ago and tried to find out what made it such a PITA!! I'm glad you finally were able to get a good shooting load!! I have only heard good things about hammer bullets. If Bergers ever disappoint, or I decide to go hunt in Comifornia, I will be using them. Heck, I may try them in the 7.5 twist Krieger I just got to put on a ruger m77, it will be chambered in .264 win mag. Would the 137 Hammer Hunter stabilize in a 7.5 twist, since I am at 6,600 ft+ elevation? [/QUOTE]
