[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 2861344, member: 5262"] In my 7mm-08, I’m using StaBall 6.5. I’ve only just started load development, so have not really began any serious load workup. I did just enough to sight the gun in for deer season (then never hunted with it). It’s a 15” barrel Rem XP-100. I went straight to 49.0 gr SB6.5 and simply sighted it in. All I can say is during sighting it in, after I got the point of aim where point of impact was, I could hit what I was aiming at at 100 yds. I’ve not yet shot for groups using that load. Chrono showed 2650 fps with that load. Soon I’ll do some serious load workup. I also used the same N150ABLR in another XP-100 15” bbl 7mm REM BR. That gun was a consistent 0.600” gun with 8208xbr. Velocity was only 2350 with this load. My 28 Nosler has been decently accurate using the H166ATIP. However, Thais one also needs some tweaking as well. I use Retumbo with this bullet and get just over 3300 fps. 3/4 MOA groups, which I think can be better. It was the first load I tried, and never played around with it to see if it could be better.
