Thanks Toad. Have you shot 'em enough to have an opinion on whether the .570 BC is accurate? Seems like a heckuva combination. What's your twist rate?

the ballistics programs get me pretty close, so i'd say either the advertised BC is accurate or the ballistics programs use corrected values.
i run 1-8" twist in .264 bore, including this one.

That is a interesting bullet I should get close to 100fps more with my 30" Shilen barrel with 1 in 8" twist. Have you tried it at long range? Keep me posted on it.

I am doing over 3300 with the 130gr AB and RL22. I would give it a good try in the 264, especially with the 120's. Might be a stellar performer. Scotty
