Berger 140gr Classic Hunter
67.4gr Re 26
CCI 250 primers
COAL 2.840
Norma brass
My ProChrono is reading 3200 FPS
Could someone run the numbers in Quickload Thanks
I don't know the H2O of the Norma case so I used default.
This is with a 26" barrel it is less vel with 24" so we would have to run numbers again.
Also Berger list the RL26 with that bullet in a 24"
