Found the magic pill

For my Weatherby Vanguard S2 257 Wby Mag

69gr IMR 7828
117gr Sierra GameKing
CCI 250 primer
Norma brass
OAL of 3.25
*Pretty sure this is near or at max charge for this bullet so approach with caution*

Started at 3.19" and worked my way up, groups tightened as I moved up. 3.25" gave me this group. Center to center was .32" Hope I can get close to this with Accubonds

I shoot that bullet sometimes ... along with IMR 7828 ... same Primer .... Remington brass ... with a slightly less charge ... in my .25/06 ...

I also shoot the 110 gr. Accubond ... IMR 7828 ... same primer ... Remington brass ...

Both will shoot better than I can see now days ...

Oh ...good shooting ... !!!

That is my load, but with a Nosler Partition. It is fairly hot, 3450 fps out of my Ruger 77,

What grain partitions are you shooting witchhunter?

Shooting little tiny groups like that will reduce you target paper use a bunch! I mean...postage stamps are big enough and you'll get plenty in the mail. That's some good shooting!
