Have you tried Federals Power Shok150gr load?I've only tried Rem 150gr CL's along with the Feds in my Ruger Hawkeye AW in .280 since I just wanted to get some brass for reloading but I'd be very surprised if I can get better accuracy than the Fed load.The Rem load shoots 3 shot groups about 1 3/4" at 100 yds on average but I've gotten several 2 holes overlaping 3 shot groups with the Feds.Wicked accurate!!!
