[QUOTE="TMR, post: 118618, member: 5819"] Just for comparision, in the rifle I used last fall hunting in Canada, 103 gr WC872 produced 3175 fps with the same bullet but in a 30" barrel. My new rifle with this new load will easily get within 25 fps of this load with 3" less barrel length and 4 lbs less rifle. So the US869 Powder works pretty well. I just sent an email asking if you had a chance to test the rifle. Guess I should have read this first. In your opinion, is it a combination of barrel twist and different powder, or just the powder that allows the velocity? Sounds like 3200 to 3250 in a 30" barrel will be achievable with this powder.
