I agree the accubond wasn't great for me either, VLD's shoot better.
Keen to try the new Hornady ELD's when they eventually arrive.........

Sorry for late reply. With the 140VLD-H and with a Superformance powder load of 46.9gn I'm getting about 2830F/S.

Obviously this load is for my rifle and starting several grains less for your...

I know others have tried different powders. I started with 2209 like you had pressure signs also, the tried Superformance powder which is a slower blend of powder I used in my 300wsm which gave good...
