N135

[rjtfroggy]

I'm going to try N135 in my 6x45. I am replacing my IMR 4895 loads, cutting back a couple of grains and trying 3 different bullets, 85,95, & 105 grain bullets. Barrel is a 1:8 X-caliber, on a Savage action that is T&T with a 2 oz. trigger in a McMillan edge. I'll be playing with this while waiting for my 6mm barrel for my Panda that will be for BR short range group and score.
I just want to see how this will shoot with the 135-, 6- or 7-year-old reloads with the 4895 shot into 0.617, 5 shot groups at 100, and I want to see if I can improve the groups. Weather will not be very good for shooting until end of week (to windy) so it will be a few days before I go out.

If You don’t mind “froggy“, what trigger do You have set at 2 ounces ?

Sounds like it might be the discontinued “Evolution“ ?

It is. Set up by Fred Morea. In my opinion it is as good as a Jewel almost.
I stopped using SSS when they sold the last one that I had a deposit on waiting for the email to send in my target action.

Have tried it in 6 BRA with 105-107 grain bullets single digit SD's takes 1 to 1.5 grain more than H-4895

N-133 might also be one to try with the lighter bullets
