Does anyone have a load for 150 g bullets that works well I'm shooting a 24" 700 bdl and having a hard time finding something with good speed and accuracy.

I have a Mark V 300 Wby with a 24" barrel that loves Ballistic Silver Tips. I regularly get sub 1" groups at 100 yds using either 150, 168 and 180 gr bullets. For 150 grs bullets:
IMR 4831 82 grs ~3330 fps
IMR 7828 84 grs ~3200 fps

The 7828 was slower but the velocities were much more consistent and hence accuracy was slightly better.
Of all the bullets that I have tried in my gun, the Ballistic Silver Tips of all weights have been the most accurate.

Good shooting,
Shawn
