What barrel length? Powder?

 

[SJB358]

Cartridge : .25-06 Rem.
Bullet : .257, 100, Nosler BalTip 25100
Useable Case Capaci: 61.285 grain H2O = 3.979 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.250 inch = 82.55 mm
Barrel Length : 24.0 inch = 609.6 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 62000 psi, or 427 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

11 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.

[Guy Miner]

Perhaps it's time to try the shorter bullet! :grin:

 

[SJB358]

Perhaps it's time to try the shorter bullet! :grin:

Ha, haven't you shot something with just about everything out of a 25-06 by now Guy?

 

[buckfever]

RL 25 with 100gr bt looks impressive I might have to give that combo a try.

 

[YoteSmoker]

Scotty, thank you! The barrel is 26" 10 twist.

 

[SJB358]

Scotty, thank you! The barrel is 26" 10 twist.

Sweet, well you should just net a little more speed.

What powder would you like to have ran YS? Wasn't sure which direction you wanted to go?

 

[YoteSmoker]

Scotty, I took note of RL 22 and IMR 7828. Can you please run IMR 4350, H 4895, IMR 4895, and Varget unless you think any are too fast of powders?

4350 would be about as fast a powder I would run in a 25-06. The others would work but might be pretty low on load density. It's up to you. Here is what IMR4350 looks like.

Cartridge : .25-06 Rem.
Bullet : .257, 100, Nosler BalTip 25100
Useable Case Capaci: 61.285 grain H2O = 3.979 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.250 inch = 82.55 mm
Barrel Length : 26.0 inch = 660.4 mm
Powder : IMR 4350

Predicted data by increasing and decreasing the given charge,
incremented in steps of 2.0% of nominal charge.

Thank you all for assistng me with making this happen! Team Nosler - You guys are awesome!

 

[YoteSmoker]

The orange sticker is an inch for point of referrence.

 

[DrMike]

That is a fine group for sure; anyone can be proud of that accuracy.

 

[Guy Miner]

Yote Smoker...

I kind of think your rifle likes 100 gr bullets... :grin:

 

[Guy Miner]

I'd be REAL TEMPTED to go load up a mess of those and fill some tags... Nice shooting!

Might try some Noslers, in 100 grains, just for the heck of it.

The 100 BT has been my standard 25-06 deer bullet since day one. It has always worked well and has killed like lightning. Accuracy has been superb out of my Sauer 202.

I don't recall my specific charge but I know I used IMR 4831.

Very nice group there YS. Long may that consistency remain. The 100gn bullet works really well...but which one is it..the Nosler BT or the Prohunter? ATB ET

 

[YoteSmoker]

It is the 100 Ballisitic Tip. The rifle is a TC Pro Hunter.

 

[SJB358]

VERY NICE YS! That sorta load would be pretty fierce out on the open plains! Nice shooting!

 

[Dwh7271]

Great shooting and results!
Agree with the others, guess that rifle likes 100 gr bullets.
Haven't run any 7828 in mine, may have to play with it now. :grin:
