[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 1991541, member: 115658"] I have experienced similar problems with my 6.5-06's both having McGowen 8 twist barrels. My favorite powder is H1000 for 140's. I checkout fired cases to see if bullets can easily be slipped fit inside brass mouths. I routinely turn necks to .288, leaving neck walls ~ .012. I use real cheap brass, often bought once fired then annealed. Lapua .30-06, brass is an option and if I were to tackle important stuff I would use it. Most of my shooting is with 130 H ELDM's with RL 23 ~ 3100 fps. I also use 4000MR with great results in .243 W & .300 WM but temps may range between 20* to over 90* resulting in use of RL 23, H1000 (real scarce), or H4831SC. 140's - Skinny, heavy weight for caliber to launch.
