[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 488263, member: 25488"] I have the Savage LRH and my velocities are very close to SXwatson. Further, I have never been able to afford a custom rifle for myself but have played with a bunch, the LRH 6.5-284 is more accurate than any similar weight hunting rifle I have fired and as accurate as a few of the BR rifles. My max load with Lapua brass and a Fed 215 is 51.5 RL17 velocity is 3120-3150 depending on what can the powder came from. SD is in the low single digits. Mine likes the 130 VLD a little better than the 140 though, and it works VERY well on deer out to 320 yards, that is the longest shot opportunity I have had so far on a deer. [/QUOTE]
