I load 80.0grs of Reloader-22 or Winchester WXR in mine with 140gr bullets @ 3400 + fps.

imr4831 has given me the best velocity and most consistant groups with 140's.
3475fps avg

I have run this load for myself and friends now 4 rifles all run this load excellently.
81.5 grains IMR7828 with 140 Nosler Accubond. Its a top end load so approach with caution.

Tim, I'm sure that load is moving along pretty good. velocity?
IIRC, I couldn't get to 81.5 with the 139 HIBs.
I have used imr7828 and H1000 in the heavier bullets with great results.

Velocity is just over 3400 fps. I also have much luck with H1000 for 160`s

H1000 for the 140's and H5010 for the 160's if you can find it.
