[QUOTE="vcinri, post: 1839127, member: 107838"] I went to the range today to try out my test loads. Savage 110BA LE, 1:9, Nightforce NXS 8-32x56 I started with the Barnes 225 gr. TTSX. Using H1000 Powder. The 3 charges I tested were 96, 97, 98Grs. 1.25-2.5" groups was the result. I was getting 3024, 3050 and 3084 FPS. Max charge for this head was 98.8 grs. (per Barnes data) I was a little disappointed on both speed and accuracy. The Berger 250gr. Elite Hunters where charged 88, 89, 90grs. 90 max per Berger. They gave me .75-2". The 88gr. gave me the best accuracy but was only 2680 FPS. Max charge for this load is 90grs. which gave me 2750FPS. My current load is 250g. SGK, 96gr. H1000 @ 3050FPS. With sub moa. I was really hoping for at least a 3150fps, accurate load with the 225's and to get a good Berger load going at least 3000fps. I am thinking there is a little room to work with on the Berger charge. 2750 seems a little slow for max load. Going to do some more research and testing. [/QUOTE]
