Had it throated for 140 berger as generic starting point. Want to shoot 150 sierra. Have extra bell and Carlson until I can afford McMillan. 8 twist Krieger #4 at 26". What velocity do you think for the 140?

BigGameRS lined me out on this. Yeah, the 264 clobbers the creed, etc.

Ive shot so many sub 2" 500 yd groups with a stock tikka I've lost count. Mount a scope and go hunt

Trystan Me too. You just have to whittle it down to 2-shot groups by throwing out the "flyers."
A wise man is frequently humbled.
