Hello,

I'm trying to come up w/ a list of loads that are 'known good' for XTC (Across The Course) NRA HighPower shooting. Preferable using Sierra MatchKings (or Nosler J4 equivalents, when applicable), and an approx. MV would be helpful as well.

So far I have just this:

168gr SMK / 42.0gr IMR 4064

I know there are some old standbys using a 168 and 4895, but I haven't been able to find them yet.

Thanks,

Monte

Hmmm... found a couple more. One is for 168's w/ 43.6gr 4895, and the other is for a *stiff* load of 4064, 43.5-43.7gr behind a 168 SMK.

Any others?

Thanks

Monte

I'm guessing you're using a gas gun(M14) Here is the M852 National Match load as put out by F.C. Barnes:
vel: 2550(+/-)30fps
bullet: 168gr hollow point boat-tail
powder: IMR 4895 42.0 grains
"NM" brass

The M118
vel: 2550(+/-)30fps
bullet: 175 grain
powder: IMR 4895 42.0 grains, or WC 846 44.0 grains
"NM" brass

26" PSS 45.5 Varget/210M primer/Winchester prepped case/175SMK 2760fps >1/2MOA @100 and from a competitive source, stays tight all the way to 1K
