[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1249609, member: 87243"] I now have 3 boxes of the 147 ELD-M coming from Midway that I'm going to test out in my .260 AI with a 30" tube, I'm going to try H4831sc, H1000 and possibly IMR 7828. I emailed Hornady asking about reloading data....we shall see where that goes. I have my doubts about them being able to provide anything for a 260 ackley with their new 147. I was able to get over 3000 with the 143 ELD-X without excessive pressure, and my accurate load was 2975. If I can get 2900 with the 147, running the G7 bc through my applied ballistics it gives me .8 MOA less drift with a 10mph wind, 200 more ft lbs, 100 fps more velocity, and 1.5 MOA or so less drop at 1000 yds than my 140 Berger VLD load.
