[QUOTE="gonehuntingagain, post: 32278, member: 1206"] In my Win M70 300 mag, factory barrel with the BOSS, I use 69gr IMR4350 and get 2950fps with the 200gr Accubond, seated to mag length - it doesn't matter if it is 80F or 20F outside either. With a 200 yd zero, my actual drops are (in MOA): 250 -0.5 300 -2 350 -2.5 400 -4 I haven't worked on ranges past 400 (yet!), and probably won't until I get a real scope on it. I worked up to this load, and it doesn't show pressure signs in my gun. I found this load in a very old manual (Speer #3). As for not having a chronograph, use the velocities that people are listing here to plug into a ballistics calculator, then go out and find out what your real drops are. Mine were different than what the calculator said they should be, some by quite a bit. These new accubonds are awesome - I was shooting 165gr ballistic tips (3200 fps) with a 100 yard zero - I had to adjust my scope DOWN 6" for the accubonds to be zeroed at 100. I just want to see what they will do to an Elk now [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
