[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 1102442, member: 307"] One of my favorite bullets! The Ballistic Tip. I shot quiet a few of the 120gn NBT's in Georgia with RL25, CCI BR2's and Lapua brass. My load was 58.5gn's, it averaged .3445" for 5 shot groups at 100yds. 59.0gn was right in there also (.380") but of the two loads, the ES and SD were better with 58.5gn. My rifle would print this load/bullet anywhere from 1.5" to 2.5" @ 500yds. I killed several Ga whitetail with this load. None ran, they were all DRT. Good, accurate load in my rifle. Been wanting to try RL26 with the 140gn NBT to see if I can get the same accuracy from it. Always something to try. :) Currently shooting 140gn A-Max's with 59.0gn Retumbo/CCI BR2's/Lapua brass. Getting 3040fps and sub .5MOA. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
