[QUOTE="Buttermilk, post: 1562560, member: 5262"] In a bolt gun, I've loaded the Nosler 125 BT to nearly 2400 FPS (don't have my data handy but I think it was around 2375 fps) from a Rem 700 SPS 16.5" bbl. Accuracy has been a solid 0.5"-0.6" gun at 100 meters with this load. I used W296 powder. I have some load data from SSK industries for the 300 Whisper (virtually the same) which has some healthy doses of powder. A phone call with Mr JD Jones was also helpful, since SSK data is considerably hotter than book loads. For my son's M&P15, we switched to the Barnes 110 TAC-TX bullet so we could drive it faster than the N125BT. The Barnes 110 TAC-TX has worked better than the N125BT, at least for one deer, with better expansion, and better accuracy from the M&P15 which is limited on how hot you can load ammo. [/QUOTE]
