Laurie Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 Have a look at a recent thread called 'Powder' in the Handloading topics section. The 123gn Scenar data are fine for the same weight A-Max and just drop 1.0gn for any 130gn bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi thanks Laurie I have just tried the 130 vld hunting over 36.5g of N150 & got a 3 shot group of .372" in the wind we have so am very happy. I tried 36.3g which was very good at .451" so I think I am going to keep to N150 for now. I don't know speed but will drop chart it & try it at some of the small rifle shoots we do up here. My rifle was built by Grant Taylor on a Borden action & true flite barrel at 24" bedded into an h-s stock as I don't have funds for Mcmillan as yet cheers.
