I use 26.0 grains of N133 with a 68 grain Sierra FB, and it’s worked extremely well. It’s a competition benchrest rifle built by the late Ron Hoehn 25 years ago, with a 45 power Leupold scope. Still has the original Shilen barrel.

I’ve shot several zero sized 5 shot 100 yard groups, with the smallest at .068″ last fall. The world IBS record is .051, if I recall correctly, so I ain’t disappointed.

Best rifle I ever owned.Thank you, Ron.

The 6 lb weight is getting more and more appealing.
