[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 96293, member: 3733"] aussie, I have a savage mod 11, standard countour barrel 24" long. This gun puts the 40 grain factory hornaday load in 5/8" at 100 yards. My handloads using 28.5 grains of 748 and the bullets seated closer to the lands drives them 100fps faster and less than 1/2". The one thing I noticed about the factory fodder is it is much slower than hornady claims. 40gr factory out of a 26" tube published at 3900fps I think I was getting around 3680fps My loads are around 3775fps This is a cold weather load I don't use over 50 degrees, so if anyone loads start at 26 grains and work up.
