[QUOTE="sqdougherty, post: 2667835, member: 124142"] What I'm running right now in the 260 rem is peterson brass, with 47grs H4350 is 121 heavy hammer. Getting right around 3007fps with an ES of 15. ~1" at 100yds I tried the 124 hammer hunters but had issues with stabilization at longer ranges. they were running around 2850fps with 20-24 ES, using 45grs of H4350. My twist rate is 1:9, so shooting the longer, higher BC bullets is my struggle. If just wanted a hunting rifle I think everything would work just fine, but I'm spoiled because I built a 300wm that shoots 1/2" at 200yds using Hammer 181s. Now I'm chasing similar precision for the other rifle......... I like to tinker and spend my money on silly things o_O [/QUOTE]
