any loads for 264 win mag

Yes sir...The 264 is one of my favorites.
I use 46 grains of DuPont 4064 over a CCI large rifle primer and topped off with a Sierra 140 gr. spitzer BT or Speer 140 gr. spitzer SP.
I get excellent accuracy with these rounds (3/4" groups at 100 yds) with many holes overlapping. I will be testing out the Barnes TSX when the weather breaks (I've already switched to the TSX in my 300 win and am very pleased with the results) This round is notorious for burning up barrels in as little as 1000 shots (so I am told & read) but so far I havn't had any probs. Great deer round, and I wouldn't hesitate to use it on black bear or even moose (but admittedly it wouldn't be my first choice) I know one chap that took an elk with this caliber.

has to be a typo, 46 gr is a 243 win/80 gr load.
