Would like to know more about this. Never heard of a 200 gr 264 or a 5.5 twist. The sectional density must be through the roof with that thing!

About... 8fps? 
Seriously, though, I'd be interested to see what you're getting for velocity. Is this a hunting load, or strictly target? I know nothing of it.

It is a round from my Grandad/Dad's collection. My Dad said they were too much of a good thing and tumbled at some point in use, not sure if he meant in flight or upon impact.

I wonder what the freebore length is in that gun chamber. Imagine using 140 grain bullets in that particular chamber, it must jump a looong way.
