[QUOTE="Far North Hunter, post: 1846753, member: 110640"] Interesting topic. Some years back I was fire forming a 30-338 custom chamber on a Remington action. From memory, my 150 gr. Speer fire forming loads were grouping just great. i even went on to zero them at 100 yds. Then a couple weeks latter I returned to the range with my new loads for a upping elk hunt. The loads were imr 4831 with 180 or 200 gr Nosler partitions. After finding the node I discovered I was hitting exactly the same 100 yd zero as the Speer fire forming loads!! i went to fill my deer tag with the 150’s, and later that fall I filled my elk tag with the Nosler load. Of course longer range bullet drop was different, but not much out to 250 yds. Again from memory, the velocity of the150’s was around 2600 FPS, the Noslers were 3050fps. [/QUOTE]
