Lightest I've been able to try so far has been the 88gr Cutting Edge with n565. Also looks like others have tried the 87 vmax with RL26 but I don't see anything lighter than that. Since you have RL26 I'd give that a shot and see what happens.

I guess I used the wrong terminology. Yes, aligns with the results. I had wondered if this were the case ever since I was able to induce deflection with a clip on thermal on my night vision bridge if I bent the chassis foreend with a bipod or tripod. Albeit much more grevious of a deflection...

Interesting findings! This seems to contradict the tripod trick I had heard about locking down the ballhead with the reticle about half a mil to a mil low below the target so that when you settle in to your NPA the reticle rises to the target. Would you agree?

What's the twist rate? And SAAMI spec chamber?

I should caveat that with the fact that I got this barrel with about 200 rounds already on it used, so it was already well broken in. Assuming you're past the break in period I don't see why you couldn't use the same load until it's burned out. Wouldn't be a bad idea to clean it more often...

I've put probably 600 through mine and still shooting great. I run fairly moderate loads and mostly the heavies around 110 grain and the load I started with still works exactly the same. From my discussion with gunsmiths, I predict it'll last about 1k rounds or so. Not many guys have even put so...

Got an update on the 6 PRC chronicles for anyone who is still watching this thread. I was able to connect on a cow elk at about 250 yards with that 88gr Cutting Edge MTH Gen 2 with an impact velocity of about 3100 fps. Even though I placed the shot a little lower than I had wanted, the results...
