Jager SA Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Stick with the 55g, once you have them shooting right they are devistating. Ive got a load for 55g Game Kings I use to use out of my Master years back, I will dig it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jager SA Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 The other blinding powder for the 50g is Benchmark, @ 26.5g doing around 3500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulkyuk Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Here are the results of the load tests - i am not the steadiest shot in the world (target shooting wise - fine on vermin, foxes and deer though , so i think they should be fine First pic is of the 50grn Nosler with 27grn of Varget Second pic is of the 55grn Sierra and 26.5 Grn of Varget - I know i pulled the one shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streeker59 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Tulky. I predominantly use the Sierra 60 grn flat based HP in my 1 in 12" T3 after a session at Bisley trying 52's and 55's. The 60 grn Sierra beat all at 200 yds with clover leafing groups.. Something my steyr 1 in 9" couldn't achieve yet an old ruger 77 with a 12 twist could with the same pill. I load it quite hot at 26 grn varget and a COL of 2.265" so it just fits in the mag. If you want to try some of these, pm me with your address and i'll send you some to try. Grant...
