Can anyone with the Nosler reloading book help me with the begiining load for a 115gr partition in 25-06 using H4831 or Varget? Thanks!

Burke;
This isn't the nosler specific data but it'll put you in the ballpark. [Wink]

Have shot a .25-06 since 1961 and have found that I had my best luck with the 100 grain bullets, less drop and more power than the 115 grain. Shot crows to bear. For varmint shooting have used some 90 grain. All in front of 4831. Good Luck!

Burke: The #5 Nosler manual doesn't list either H-4831 or Varget for the .25-06. They do list IMR-4831 with a start charge of 48.0 grs and a MAX charge of 52.0 grs. They indicate their most accurate powder was IMR-4350 with a starting load of 45.0 grs. and a MAX charge of 49.0 grs. The 49.0 gr. charge is indicated as their accurate load. Hope this helps some.

Burke, I used h-4831 using 51 grains with the 100 grain bullet. The burn rate is close with any of the 4831 powders start lower down and shoot some three shot groups and when you find a load that works then shoot a 5 shot group. Looking for a accurate start out seating the bullet in lands and when you find a accurate load they back the bullet away from the lands and see how your group goes.If you have a magazine feed you will have a OAL of the magazine. good Luck
