I have a 250 Savage in SAVAGE 110 RIFLE.

Does anyone have load data for Nosler 110 grain Accurbond loaded to the same pressure level as a 22-250. Same case strength in Savage 250 and in a strong bolt action rifle thus no need to limit performance of caterage to the 46,000 cup limit. Thanks.

Tom

I spent some time working up loads for the Accubond on my Model 7 250 Savage, which has a 22" barrel and 1-10 twist. I tried using IMR3031 up to 31 grains and IMR4064 up to 33 grains. After experimenting for a while, I found out my gun likes the lighter 100 gr and 90 gr bullets.

I now use the 90 gr Sierra HPBT and 100 gr Corelokt with good success on wild pigs and deer. These lighter bullets work well at the moderate velocity of the 250 Savage. The bullets hold together and now I am content not using heavier bullets with the 250 Savage.

I ended up using the 110 accubonds with my 257 Roberts. I get good accuracy and results with that gun and the accubonds.

I loaded both the 100g NP and cheap speers w/ 35g of RL15. I did not chrono them, but they shoot well and deer hate them.
