[QUOTE="6.5Express, post: 527137, member: 34804"] My load with the 130 accubond is 64 grains of Retumbo, WLRM, Nosler brass, bullets seated 0.010 off the lands. I was hoping to get the 130 grain bullet over 3200 with accuracy but 66.0 grains of Retumbo in my rifle started to give a sticky bolt. Velocity was around 3180 and the group was crap. When I ran some numbers on the G7 program, the 120 bt's at 3300 would reach 1800 fps at around 850 yards (if I remember correctly). The accubond at 3065 15' feet from the muzzle will get down to 1800 fps at around 700. And, at 550 yards the 120 was roughly one full minute flatter. The reason I use the 1800 fps is that's what Nosler recomends as minimum velocity. I'm okay with the accubond groups in my gun just wish I could do it a couple hundred fps faster - a higher bc wouldn't hurt either. [/QUOTE]
