LOL. I'm smoking some baby back ribs today.

I kinda invented that. I cook them low and slow, I kinda pioneered that style of cooking.

Sometimes I use mesquite wood, I kinda pioneered that too. Hopefully the Texans won't catch on, they'd wipe out all the mesquite in STX.

I am old enough to remember when you were begging me for a .264 Win Mag recipe back in 2012 but I don't remember ever asking you for any rib recipe?

The reason I'm asking is, I got the data from Walt Berger, but I can't get anywhere near their max. loads with H-1000. I think their max. for H-1000, which shoots best in my rifle, is 67 grains and yesterday I got a popped primer, hard bolt lift, and 3,260 fps with 63 grains.

I'm going to try Retumbo next and I'll start really low but I'm just curious about the Berger data since they seem to be 5-6 grains above everyone else's max. load for 140 grain bullets.

That was a for real max load.

No data for H1000
