Was out at the range today trying to get a my rifle zeroed in before opening day of deer season here on post. Anyhow I had several loads loaded up for my rifle and I got real good results with three loads today the first load was.
53.5gr of RL-19 W/100gr Sierra BTSP.
the next load was.
60.0gr of H-1000 W/100gr Sierra BTSP.
the last one was.
55.5gr of RL-25 W/90gr Sierra BTSP
I was using W/W 284 cases and CCI 200 primers. I do not know what the velocity for these since I do not have Chronograph. My rifle has a 25 inch Montana rifleman barrel and it is chambered in the 25-284.
The loads that didn't shoot so well in my rifle were.
55.0gr IMR 4831 W/100gr Sierra BTSP
52.0gr H-4350 W/100gr Sierra BTSP
54.0gr AA-4350 W/90gr Sierra BTSP
I hope this helps out guys trying to find a good load for there 25-284. None of these loads showed any signs of pressure.

Mine seems to like 100grain NBTs over 52 grains of RL-19 in WW cases and Fed210Ms for 3324fps...but not an apples to apples as I have a funky shoulder.

Here are some pictures of the couse deer I shot using 90gr Sierra Boattail hollowpoints with 55.5 gr RL-25, he was an easy 250yds uphill when I shot him, he dropped like a rock when the bullet hit him. I posted the whole story on the big game forum but the story has seemed to have dissapeared when they did swap over the weekend. 2nd photo entry 3rd exit.
