    Although I don't use the Nosler bullet I do use a 165 gr bullet. My load which is safe in my rifle is as follows:
    Sierra 165 gr Gameking
    59.0 grs. H4831 SC
    Federal or Remington Brass
    CCI 200 primer
    Velocity of 2700 fps out of a Savage Model 111
    Shoots 1"to 1 1/2" and sometimes tighter all day long.

    I think my load is 57.0gr H414 with Hornady 165gr BTSP. Will shoot under 1" groups at 100yds.

    I don't use a 165 gr.

    I do use a 150 gr Nosler ballistic tip on top of 57.5 gr of IMR 4350 with these results out of my Rem 760 pumpgun

    I download from a max load of 59 gr 4350 which gives me a 2 1/4 to 2 1/2" group to 57.5 gr which brings it in to about 1 to 1 1/4"

    Every gun may very well group differently with any given load.

    Opinions are like anal apertures. They all stink but mine.

    I use the 180 gr silvertips Winchester makes for my 700, little heavier but i like the punch it delivers.

    Big time, my winchester .300 mag loads shoot way different in my friends remington, if you want accuracy, unfortunately, you need to do the work, and find out what your gun likes.


    Glock Pistols.......So simple a Caveman could fix them!
