[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 2114714, member: 60453"] I load both the 200 grain Speers and the 200 grain Sierras. I use IMR4350 and Superformance. I use the old manuals for the IMR and I found a load on Handloader magazine for the Superformance. My loads are near max and are 54.5 grains of IMR4350 for about 2580-2600fps from a 22 inch Ruger M77MKII with both bullets, and 54.5 grains of Superformance(one grain under listed in the magazine) for about 2550fps with Sierras. They shoot very accurately and are flat enough from my -06 for distances out to 600 yards. I use Remington 9 1/2 primers and Winchester LR primers in the loads. 5 shot groups are about 1" at 100 yards in the Rugers and about .75" in my 03-a3. Year before last I went two for two on antelope at just over 200 yards with the IMR load and had exit wounds the size of silver dollars. I shot the Sierra bullet. I also shoot the Speer Hotcor bullet in 200 grain. BC for this bullet is .480 so it shoots pretty flat in the -06 and can be pushed to around 2650fps from a 24" and about 2600 from a 22" barrel.
