[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 220632, member: 11717"] I have to agree with Derek. I'm a speed fan but, I would gladly give up a little velocity for great accuracy. My guess is your Retumbo load is getting you middle of the road velocities, maybe better. The Hodgdon data is likely from a 24" barrel. If you call them, they'll let you know and they might give you some insight on why they dont list Retumboe for the lighter 25.06 bullets. It might be because it's a compressed load? And yeah, your 100 grain bullets should be going faster than the 117's. But you always have to take those charts with a grain of salt. Ever consider a heavier bullet? The Nosler 115 BT's have a .453 BC. [/QUOTE]
