[QUOTE="436, post: 2751782, member: 16609"] I see you are looking for a good .17 Rem load... For most of my .17 Rem hunting days I used one load, it was based on, unfortunately, the old Remington 25gr HP that they used in their factory ammo which I found in my rifle to be an easy five shots sub 0.50 moa and better. When I measured out ascertaining the factory powder charge by weight, the powder was identical to VV N135 powder in texture, weighing 22.8grs The velocity on my chronograph came out spot on with the factory velocity of 4040 fps. Here's the load. .17 Remington 25gr. HP Remington factory bullet Remington Case Remington 7 1/2 bench rest primer VihtaVuori "VV" N135 ( 22.8gr) no pressure at all. Vel 4040 fps Good luck Cheers [/QUOTE]
