[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 710417, member: 307"] I pushed the 95gn NBT ahead of 44.0gn of Viht N560 (book max is 44.5gn) with a BR2 primer and velocity averaged 3088fps out of my 26" Winchester 70 HVB. Accuracy was .2225" for 5 shots @ 100yds. I loaded them .010" off. I used this load 3 yrs ago when I lived in in norhtern VA. on groundhogs and it was deadly accurate on these vermin to 600yds. I finished off the last of what I had and haven't run acorss any since. Great powder in my rifle. Currently using the 90gn NBT with 44.0gn of H4350 and the BR2. Veloctiy averages 3180fps and accuracy was .1785" @ 100yds. I shot it Sunday to 650 & 700 yds and did good. Not great though. The mirage was bad and the wind was variable from 5 to 20 MPH and pushed the little 90gn all over the place. I had to study the conditions pretty intently and wait for them to die down a bit before I sent one. I was also shooting my .25-06 w/115gn Bergers, my 6.5-284 w/120gn NBT's and my .300WinMag w/185gn Bergers. The .25-06 had a slight edge over the 6.5-284 both in trajectory and in the wind. I'm sure it was due to the design and higher BC of the Berger. Both did fairly well but the overall champ that day was the .300WM and 185gn Berger. It was noticeably less affected by wind and I didn't have to watch the conditions so intently. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
