[QUOTE="USMC03Grunt, post: 576607, member: 25636"] Out of my Savage Model 10FP, pre-aluminum bedding job, this is what my best Ballistic Tip load was: 24" bbl 1-10 Twist 165gr Nosler Ballistic Tip 45.7gr IMR 4064 Federal Large Rifle Primer COAL: 2.865 MV: 2941 Brass was full-length resized I routinely can keyhole shots with this at 200 yards, and always shoot a clover leaf with it at 300. Also, I'll hold about 4-6 inches at 600, depending on the wind, with a bipod. My other good Ballistic Tip load is out of my Remington 700 VTR: 22" 1-12 Twist 150gr Nosler Ballistic Tip 45.5gr Varget Federal Large Rifle MATCH primer COAL: 2.954" MV: 2559 Brass was full-length resized At 300 yards, when I tested this load out (this is my sweet spot for COAL on this load evidently), I fired a 4-shot group that measured .97" outside to outside. Not the fastest, but damned accurate. Hopefully this helps in someway. [/QUOTE]
