Chaz, I got a T3 hunter and found that, so far (only had a few months now), that the 110grn accubond over H4831 works good. Tried RE22 and Retumubo (I got a feeling that is to slow) and it likes H4831 better. Haven't tried other bullet weights yet and probably won't. I will be doing powder/primer/seating depth changes though. Smedley P.S. I REALLLY like the Tikka!!! This is my first but won't be my last.

Ive been working with my rem 700 sendero in 25-06 and these are what it seems to like the best, these were 3 round groups at 100 yrds. I didnt have my chony there so not velocities with the loads. Im not bench rest shooter by any means, I was pretty impressed by the results I got. But every gun is a bit different so here it is for what its worth 120 gr. Nosler partition ---IMR 4895---36grs.492 120gr. Nosler partition---IMR 4831---49grs .852 117gr Hornady BTSP---RL22---48grs .776 90Gr. Sierra SPBT--- Re19---54grs .868 I still have a ton of rounds loaded but havent been able to shoot for a while now. | |||

If your rifle won't shoot 49.0 grains of IMR 4350 behinf the 117 grain Sierra SBT or the 120 grain Hornady Spire point or 53.1 grains of H4831 behind eith one of the afforementioned bullets, it's an abnormally!! Now go down to the 115 Noslers and try them with the same loads! 57.0 grains of Re-19 and the 87's out to work real good!! You may want to test from 56-57.3 with these! 50.0 grains of VARGET and the 75 grain VMAX will probably do the deal for the little pills(in your 22.5 inch barrel expect 3500fps!! or so!!) Any other questions?? GHD "pastor at the church of GHD....25-06" Groundhog Devastation(GHD) | |||

GHD, I still havent got to try all the bullets I got from you. I have a few other combinations loaded up but havent shot them. I havent tried the 4350 yet. Im not terribly wealthy so it takes time for me to accuire all the different powders to try with all those bullets, I will though. Chazgreen, these are the next rounds im going to be trying in my 25-06, dont know if they are of any help but after I get them shot up I will try to post my results of them. Here is what I have loaded but still havent shot yet. 100gr Hornady SP CCI 250 IMR4895 47gr. thru 54gr. 87gr. Sierra HPBT CCI250 Re19 51gr. thru 57gr. 85gr. Nosler Ballistic tip CCI250 IMR4895 42gr. thru 46gr. 75gr. Sierra HP CCI250 IMR4895 46gr. thru 49gr. | |||
