I shoot Hornady 160 grain RN bullets (RL-22 powder) out of my .264/06 (6.5/06)
and it likes em a bunch. I shoot 3/4 to 1-inch groups most of the time from the bench with this load and it penetrates a ton. Velocity with this bullet is around 2700fps give or take a few feet.

I also use that Hornady 129 grain bullet and it shoots very good also. Velocity is close to 3000fps using H-4831 powder and groups are in the .650 to .885 range on a good day from the bench. However for coyotes, I have gone to the 100 grain bullet V-MAX (H-4350 powder) as shots are seldom over 200 yards. Velocity is 3300fps and it shoots .685-MOA.

We are working on the 140 grain bullet but haven't come up with a good accurate load as of yet with the Hornady SST or A-MAX bullet.
