[QUOTE="lowdowndirtybugger, post: 1251037, member: 88303"] I went with a 6.5 saum match chamber ( .188 fb) . Loaded .08 off the lands with 140 eldm 1 in 8 twist mcgowen barrel nitride by controlled thermal technology. I ran into 2 nodes with h1000. One at 58.5 grains sank 5 bullets into one ragged hole velocity at 3045 The next at 60.5 again 5 shots in one ragged hole velocity 3175. I was able to get 3200 with 61 grains and 3220 at 61.4 but the groups opened to 5/8" I think I'm going with the 58.5 grain load as my go to load. This should give decent barrel life and is still smoking fast [/QUOTE]
