[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 661940, member: 505"] Well the Nosler 200 grain accubond data didn't get in there somehow. I tried bumping up the powder charge from a load in my notes and seated the bullet deeper. I bumped it from 93 grains Retumbo to 94 grains and seated the bullet .01" deeper from 3.759" to 3.749". The velocity increased to 3276 fps and the velocity spreads jumped to 28 fps. Groups spread to about .75 moa at 400 yards. I tried the H-870 powder also with this bullet with good results. I loaded 104 grains and got a 3228 fps average with a 12 fps velocity spread. This was a mild load with this rifle. Accuracy was excellent producing a moa in the .3's at 400 yards. I felt this was excellent performance for a true quality hunting bullet with a good bc. The oal on this load was 3.755" [/QUOTE]
