Anyone besides me have accuracy issues using Hunter with heavier bullets? I've tried 3 different loads of 42, 42.5, and 43, and none would touch 1 MOA with 140g sst. Those same bullets with h4350 are magic.

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.
