[QUOTE="Osage48, post: 3326608, member: 1176"] Just an update, I have been working up loads for my Barrett Fieldcraft 6.5 CM. Using a Winchester LRM primer, Hornady 140 BTHP match bullet and 41.0 grs of IMR 4350 I was able to get a 1/2" group at 200 yards. This load chrono'd at 2650 fps. I was amazed that both me and the rifle were up to it. This is not a maximum load in this rifle, but I will probably use this as my accuracy load. I am curious to see of I can find a hunting bullet (143 ELD-X?) that will impact close to this one so there is not much adjustment to the scope for hunting. [/QUOTE]
