.243 load data with hybrid 100v & 95gr match kings

[chrisr]

Looking for load data using hybrid 100v and 95gr match kings. A search turned up nothing and Sierra won't have data on that combo until later in the year.

Looking for load data using hybrid 100v and 95gr match kings. A search turned up nothing and Sierra won't have data on that combo until later in the year.

Go to the Hogdon site, online and punch in,.. 95, 100, 105 grain, bullets with, H100v and "work up", YOUR loads,.. carefully.
Most guys "here" seem, to be shooting, H-4350, IMR 4350, IMR 7828, H 4831 sc or, IMR 4831 and Vithavouri N-160 or, N-165 with those weight Bullets !
Personally, I've "read" that, H100v is,.. a pretty "dirty" Powder ( no experience, tho !) so,.. I've never tried it. I do like, N-160 and IMR 4350,.. a LOT, tho !

Don't waste your time and money with 100V. H4350 is great for the 95 SMK and it meters great. IMR4350 is ok but not as good results as H.

Hybrid 100V should extend barrel life. At least in theory.

Vihit. N-160, is some serious, "Pixie dust" for me, with the 87 V-Max !!
42.5 grains, yesterday shot, a .600 ctr to ctr, 5 shot group out of, my Factory STOCK ( except Yo Dave, Trigger spring) Tikka T3, .243 win.
I will be going up in 1/2 grain increments, to 44 gr's to see if, I can "tighten" that up, a bit ! THANKS urbanrifleman, for the "TIP" on this Powder !
Load Data, is online at,.. Vihitavouri.com up to 105 grain Bullets. Hornady Book, also.

Quickload estimate.... Note the COAL.
The longer the COAL (with out being in the lands) the more powder is needed to generate MAX pressure.

Zero,

Can you run that with a 30" barrel and see what it shows?

All else being equal... 30" tube estimate is 3,208 fps

When I extend the COAL to 2.830", the velocity drops to 3,193 fps in the 30" stick.
