It's in "I know gun writers . Will badmouth you to them. I will go to DSC and do it there too."
but that would have come across as pompous  Catching up on a little reading. That made me chuckle. You wouldn't want to do that.

Had some 160 Partitions (which is what i would like to shoot) with 3X loaded brass and I got this. i'm betting the 140 TTSXs will reduce, but still, a LONG way from the 3" groups I was getting.. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/gi7BgT1.jpg)
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Glad they followed through for you. Thanks for posting the end results of the rifle. Let’s other know Weatherby does take care of the customer.

The velocity level of those loads were not very impressive for going to the expense of a Weatherby. Maybe I'm wrong but those 175 should have been over 3000fps and the 140's over 3300 fps. No argument on the groups but way slow? MB
" Cheapest velocity in the world comes from a long barrel and I sure do like them. MB "

I did. My 140 TTSXs came in right at 1". The 160NPs shot the same. I just ordered some 168gr TTSX LRX and going to try those.
