VihtaVouri N-133 help

Any loading advise for 6mm Br lapua brass.28" Kreger 13.5 twist.Wanting to try 70gr berger Varmint match grade bullets.I have a large quantity of these bullets.They have been discontinued but hoping some one can give me some insight for a good load.I would like to use Varget or VV N-133 any help appreciated.
 
N-135 works better in the BR the 133 is just a tad to fast start with around 31.5 grs of Varget or N-135 and work your way up till you hit a sweet spot or reach pressure signs .
 
Thanks for the input.I have about l0lb. of the N133 and no N135 so I thought I may try it.Also have Varget.Have not shot any of the 70gr. yet.Thanks again. Pat
 
patablue, I was also told thar n-133 was too fast for my 6mmbr but tried it anyway.Turned out to be the best loading of 18 tested loads and is my load of choice now. My rifle is a 9# varminter with Hart 26" barrel and 1-10 twist. Lapua brass, Rem 7 1/2 primer, .276 neck,no-turn). When I couldn't get Bergers you have I went to Berger 80gr.30.0 grains n-133, crono's aver 3085 fps and groups in the 2"s consistantly., best Varget and h-322 loads are nearer 4's)The Sierra 80 gr. Blitz Kings also shoot extremely well with this loading.Different rifles seem to have different likes, but if you have a lot of n-133 I would give it a try, I love the way it meters too. Hope this helps, Bob
 
Bob, I was told by Stick who was the gun smith for SG&Y in Texas and who built my 270 neck 6BR 13.5 twist 26" kreger to shoot 70gr Nozzle ballistic tip and VihtaVouri N133.Cant find the load data he gave me.Also cant find stick they have closed the doors.Speedy is in Colorado.Any one know where Stick or JD have gone? Mike I have family outside Boise Idaho any good shooting around there? Nothing much in Calif. No dog towns.Thanks again for your input.
