125grn Nosler ballistic tips in 30-06, Load Suggestions

Hello I've taken a liking to these bullets and would like to try them in my Rem 7400.
I need to use powders of fast to medium burn rates, probably Varget.

So have any of you guys worked up any great loads with this bullet you'ed care to share?

Or the things they could be changing who do you thinks gonna care

I have found out like Nosler found out in their number 3 and 4 manuals...

RL 7 produced the most accurate results...

IMR 4198 was a very close second, followed by IMR 3031 in my 06's...

good luck,

55.0gr N140, CCI primer, rem brass, = 1/2moa in my sporter rifle.

Difficulty is inevitable
Misery is optional

I have used this load in my 30-06. that is 55 to 57 grains of H-varget with A nosler 125 BT,very good load , start A bit lower in your semi-auto and take your time going up. mine is A bolt action, you have to get cycle time right.

Have not used them in the 30-06 but my .300WM likes them when I use max loading of H4831. Not the best grouping bullet for my .300 but I am getting 1 inch groups at 100 with it.

I still have some rounds loaded with RL12, I wonder why they stopped manufacturing this powder. It shoots very well in my Ruger 77. Vihta N133 or N140 should be close enough in burn rate.
