I’m about all out of Hunter and haven’t seen any here in a while. Maybe your rifle just doesn’t like that powder bullet combination. My .270 WSM was that way with RL-26 and 129 Barnes LRX’s. Switched powders and got 3/4” groups, from what was 2” with RL-26.
Hunter shot respectable groups with 120 ballistic tips, and decent groups with 129 IL, but those 140's absolutely would not group. Thanks for the reassurance.

I’ve got some 130 gr Accubonds I want to try in my .260 Rem with Hunter. Once I see some again, I’m going to scoop it up.
