    260rem 140gr amax any good thoughts ?

    Hi all so been to the range yesterday arvo testing out a few loads with the 140amax. And what I have found is that past book max I'm getting a avg of 2720fps out of my standed tikka but did notice the groups getting better but stopped on 43.5grs. No signs of presser and ezy bolt lift etc. should I be happy with this or work up a little bit more? Thoughts please
