    Its a lightweight 18" barreled hunting rifle so don't really need the fraction more velocity of the hotter load. Even 2800 fps is more than i really need.
    I would be disappointed with 2800 from 147-143 as i get 2811fps from a 18" .260.
    See people's results is the main reason i haven't made the move and i use 10 grns less powder.
