I haven't tried them yet, but I will be relying on R22 and I suspect that about 62.5 will be the magic number as it has been with both the 160 Nosler Partition and 160 Northfork.

My "load" for my 7saum features the 160 gr. Nosler AB.

160 gr. Nosler Accubond @ 2.83" OAL
59.5 grs. H4831sc
R-P case
WLR primer
~
2797 fps avg




Avg. group out of my m700 LSS is .4" @ 100 yards, and I've held this MOA out to 300 yards


Not the fastest load out there, but I really like the accuracy.

Ooops. Hey POP, sorry I hijacked your thread. With the success you've had with H1000, I think I'd try some with the AccuBonds, too.

Thanx Fellas, I tried 70 gr of H1000 but turned out to be extremely accurate (.25" 100 yds) but very hot !!! Gotta drop a couple of grains. Velocity was 3095 fps.

Start low and work up is always a good idea . but unless you got a 22" barrel, 3100 fps with a 160 gr., with H1000, should not be super hot...
