sauer Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 aye aye folks quick one for those in the know, im on the hunt for advice please im currently using vhit N160 in my .25-06 and have not used any other powder basically since i started as im gettin reasonable results but as experience from others has shown that gettin yer hands on what you want lately is no easy...... my usual supplier has a no bad supply of varget and im wondering if any others use it in .25-06 and whats yer results???? im using from 85grn bullet to a 100grn bullet ....no higher and im led to beleive its a bit more efficient as you use less of it? ....maybe a consideration with the way prices are going ???? ( yes im scottish ) another bit angling me towards it is my other rifle is .22-250 and i hear good reports for it also. what you think guys? too fast a burning powder for my bullet range and caliber or a good choice?? thanks again sauer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruxie hill Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 no body else use varget or can advise on its uses / suitability for what i was asking? sauer / paul fit like paul i either use imr 4831 or rl 17 imr was a sweet load of 50.5 grn under a nos 100 grn bt shot sub i/4 `` and was doing 2775 fps rl 17 was about 49 grn under the 100 grn nos bt and was cronographed at over 300 fps in a simalar rifle but was rummered to be hard on the barrell so i went back to the imr a friends was using varget under a 75 v max 50.7 grn i think with good results hope this is of help to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Paul I no longer have my 25-06. Sadly missed, but another rifle now serves just as well. However, I used either Vit 160 or H4831SC 53g under a 100g bulet = 3200 fps and lightning strike effect on everything it touched. I think I used RL 22 as well with 117grainers, but would have to dig out the data. My view would be stick with Vit 160 personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
