I'm getting just as tired of waiting for load info on the 100 gr. NosBT for the 25 WSSM. I can understand wildcats taking a while but some of these calibers have been out for a long time. If I can work up my own loads on a weekend then you'd think a huge company like Nosler w/ all their R & D...

Has anyone tryed the Simms Barrel De-Resonator? Makes sense but I hate to buy one if they are only a gimmic. I have tons of Simms stuff on my archery equipment & 2 Simms recoil pads and couldn't leave home without them.

I have a 3/4" - 5 shot group at 100 yds. with the 100 gr. Balistc Tip. 100 Grain Nosler Balistic Tip 41.8 Grains Vargent Powder 200 CCI Primer 2.350" COL 3150 FPS w/ chronograph The gun is a Winchester Featherweight. I went out as far as 2.363" on COL and lost the accuracy. I COL'd the gun at...

I just bought a Prochrony from Cabelas and have had good luck with it. It's the first time I've owned one so I have nothing to compare it against but the price was right. I've shot about everything from a 300 FPS bow to a 7MM through it and it 's real consistant.

I'm pushing 3850 FPS w/ 55 gr. BT's out of a 24" Howa 22-250 w/ 3/4" groups at 100 yds. It's a great varmint bullet.

Thanks NOSLER 1. I'll just keep checking back.

7-MM in 120 would be great for fast moving animals on the open prairie. Antelope, WT Deer, even coyotes.

I've tryed Barnes VLC's in both my 243 & 22-250. Couldn't get anything that even resembeled a group. Both guns will drive tacks when not shooting moly bullets. I gave up on them but I know a few guys that shoot them in 22-250's & 220 swifts w/ 26" barrels & they swear by them. Both that I tryed...

Sounds Good. Any idea when?

Thanks James. The 25 WSSM definately has less recoil than the 25-06. I've been waiting for a good day weather wise to get out and chrony it against the 25-06. I think it will even be a little quicker than the 25-06. All the lit I've read said they're exactly the same. We'll see. If you happen to...

Have you got load info for the 100 gr. BT worked up yet for the 25 WSSM? I loaded some up using load info for another 100 gr. bullet. They shoot OK I just hate to run by the seat of my pants when reloading.

jmace - Thanks for the info. I already checked out the hodgdon site along with several others. I'm not worried about the recoil just trying to find some load info on the 100 gr. BT with different powders. My wife was shooting a 243 with 100 gr. BT's & I really like the bullet. Performs super...

I shot a Win. Model 70 x 270 for years hunting elk and all of them with 150 gr. bullets of different brands and styles. Never had a "got away". You probably get tired of hearing it but it all comes down to bullet placement. I'm shooting a 7MM now and the only reason I went to it is some of the...

I just bought my wife one. 25 WSSM in Winchester Model 70 Featherweight. Great little gun. Bought some 100 gr. BT to see how ballistics compare against 243 and low & behold I can't find any load data for a 100 gr. Ballistic Tip in 25 WSSM. Anyone including Nosler have any?
