Took my M70 Laredo out to the range yesterday and she is looking promising. I am going to try some RL25 next.

How was the velocity with US869 ?
I when I owned one I think I was pushing the 160 accubonds with 91 grains.

I have some 140gr, and will try them next. The amazing thing is that both bullets hit almost exactly the same location on the target. Nice consistency. I have a 4.5-14 Burris FF II mounted on it.
Forgot my chrony, so no velocity numbers to report. Will make sure to take it next time though.

Just loaded up some 160gr AB and H-1000. Will see how they shoot.

The H-1000 did not shoot much better than US869. I load mine to 3.600" OAL.
I will try some Retumbo and RL25 next and maybe even some 7828. I did chrono the 90grs of US869 and the 160gr TSX and they averaged 3090fps for three shots.
What charge weight of Retumbo should I start at with the 160gr AB?

That's about what I had for 90 gr. of US869....nothing outstanding but fairly accurate. I think it was MTM on here that was using 7828 with 160's . I think it was for better than 3200 fps but I cant remember that far back.
