[QUOTE="SSG Graybush, post: 2365500, member: 115190"] The 150 gr 30 cal Interlock #3031 with the Seirra 150 sgk accuracy load of 59.6 grs of H4831SC is sub moa in 2 different 30-06's at book coal. It is imo the easiest bullet to tune and kills deer well. The flat base bc is poor but under 300 who cares. Just to see I loaded the 150 gr Interlock #3031 in a 300 win mag with 72.7 grs of RL16 at 3.36 coal and in my first set of test groups it shot a 5 shot .442" group. I didnt chrono because I didnt intend to use it. But for under 300 yards on deer its a inexpensive decent easy to tune bullet. I will bad mouth Hornady's QC though. I have found, twice over about 10 years, 2 bullets of the wrong caliber in a box of bullets, a 30 cal bt in a box of 7mm, and a bt in a box of flat base 30 cal Interlocks. So fyi. This has never happened with any other manufacturer. And Hornady's variance in weight and bbto is greater then any other. But again under 300 yards on deer it wont matter much. I didnt care for Hornady's CS response so I no longer buy their products. But the 150 gr flat base Interlock is easy to tune for a close range deer bullet. [/QUOTE]
