[QUOTE="Chadp82, post: 2193826, member: 114151"] I shoot a little old school in mine (granted it was a load developed 25 years ago, and still holds today). 165 Hornady BT Interlock, w/ H4831. REM 700, 30 year old rifle. Tried and true recipe for my gun. Your mileage may vary :) if I am having a bad range trip, this combo will tell me if it’s a bad day or not, I can rule out me as the shooter or the gun/bullet combo. At 200 yds, I can get 2 out of 3 touching and the 3rd is usually within an inch. If I could hold a 3 shot clover at 200, I would walk away for the day. :) I have tried a few other bullets, 165-180 grain, and a few powders, and never matched the old load makeup. Have been close, but can’t unseat the old load. wierd part, H4831 is not showing up on “new” load data for 165 gr. It certainly shows up in my manuals. [/QUOTE]
