[QUOTE="bert2368, post: 1148043, member: 93675"] Thanks for the response- Those Berger bullets are not available locally, did find them online. $'s- Ouch! Maybe after the holiday spending shock fades. I do have some other 140 grain projectiles on hand already: 200 Sierra 6.5mm 140 gr. BT #1730 100 Hornady 6.5mm 140 gr. SST #26302 100 Hornady 6.5mm 140 gr. spire point #2630 18 Speer 6.5mm 140 gr. spitzer SP #1441 ----- And a few 129 gr. bullets as well: 14 6.5mm 129 gr. SST #26202 ----- I would like to try loading for 140 gr with the Sierras until I can get my hands on the Berger bullets, using H4831 or H4350 for a start. With my 22" barrel, I'm not going to get the velocity of the same loads in the 26" LRH, obviously. Does anyone have data for this length? I am slowly reading through the 80 + pages of this thread, and hoping that the chamber and throat dimensions of my Savage 111 are the same as the longer barreled LRH. [/QUOTE]
