Tucker1 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I am looking for a good load for a 70g nosler bullet has anyone got any good ones :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soother223 Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 varget. start with 37grains & work your way up... this stuff will shoot anything from 58 vmax up to 87 grainers for me. however it really works with 70grain noslers!!

Peskyfoxs Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 I use Varget with 75grb V max and 70grn sierra blitzkings, works well for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Varget for me, interestingly Nosler found the same the most accurate choice producing 3616 with a 42 grn max load 38grn producing 3338fps from a 24" barrel. I get 3700 from a 20" BTW but you must use safe practices and work the load up in your gun. N160 that much used .243 powder is not really the thing but if you have some anyway try a max load of 47 grn (again work it up slowly). H414 should come close to varget due to its burn rate or H4350 might also be worth a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matone Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Had good results with Hodgdon H414 for 70/75gr bullets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pestcontrol1 Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 i have had good resuilts with varget H414 and H4895 with 70gn and 80gn bullets varget and 414 are just about matched on fps with H4895 been abit slower but still giving great accuracy i am currantly using h4895 under 80gn nosler splitsers and they work well. But like people have said start low and work your load up slowly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
