Due to the lack of availability of Nosler 180 Accubonds to load for my Rem. 700 30-06 I purchased some 165 grain Accubonds to try. My "Go To" load has been new Nosler cases, WLR primer, 61.0 gr Reloder 22 and the 180 AccuBond set at a comparator OAL of 3.745", which is about 0.105 off the rifling. This load has produced 2,750 fps and MOA or a little better groups for me when I do my part.
Unless I find some compelling reason to change, I intend to use 180's in the future when supplies are available. I know that the 180 has a little better sectional density, thus better penetration all else being equal.
Does anyone have an Educated Guess at how much, if any, I will have to change seating depth when I change to the 165's? Any and all thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Rol
