25-06 load

87 grain Speer TNT w/56.0 grains of H4350. It stays well within .5" and some under .3". Note my rifle only has 1 in 10" twist so anything over 87 grains shoots about 1.5"

JLAMB- 10 twist should stabalize even 120 grain bullets. your bullets are not keyholing are they? the 1.5 inch groups are due to something besides twist rate.
 
My best load for 100gr bullets was 52grs of IMR-4831, I have a dummy round with a 100gr Nosler BT set to an OAL of 3.250" which I set my die up with. This particular rifle will shoot the BT, the Partition, and the Barnes X all within a group of 1" at 200yds.

Not changing the seater for the 115's, my best load uses 56.5grs of RL-22, and will duplicate the accuracy of the 100gr loads using the same types of 115gr bullets.

I use Winchester cases, trimmed to 2.484" and WIN-WLR primers.

I don't know but I think the rifle gods shined on me the day I picked this one up. It has to be the absolute most accurate factory rifle I have ever had.
