25.06 Rem.

[skeet]

I still use Surplus 4831 in the 25-06. With the 100-110 gr bullets I don't even weigh the powder. when ready to powder the case I fill it to the base of the neck.then seat the bullet just off the lands. Every rifle I ever had shot well loaded that way. 270 with the 130 bullet too as well as the 30-06 with a 150 gr. I just found and bought a 50 lb keg of that old surplus 4831 A dollar a pound... at a gun show! Have sold 20 pounds of it already. If you were using the 120 gr bullet I found them to be the least accurate of any weight. Don't think the velocity is high enough in the 25-06 with a 10 twist. Always shot better in my 257 Weatherly's. Best bullet in it is even the 100 grains and the 110 Accubond. I would shoot an elk with that 110 Accubond with the 25-06..or 257 Weatherby

I had decent results with the 120 partitions. And again with the hornady 117 sst.

I want to try the 110gr accubonds....but i am unable to find any!!!

Try www.shootersproshop.com They quite often have Nosler bullets at reduced prices Sometimes 2nds sometimes overruns. I buy many there... and if you are a vet they give a 10% discount. Probably to Canadians too. They should. I tried the SSTs and found them uninspiring except in my Kimber 30-06. The 165 gr shoots better than I can. A numb from the neck up friend can shoot under a half inch with it... well under. If I can stay under 7/8s I am perfectly happy. And it is a Classic Select grade with very pretty French Walnut. I bought it cause it was pretty and it turned out to be a great shooter. I just checked their site and out of stock but did have Nosler 100 gr Partitions with a price of 14.95 per 50. 115 gr Ballistic tips were 12.95 per 50. Decent bullet also. Great on Antelope

Unfortunately all reloading components are ITAR controlled and restricted to exporting to Canada. It is possible, bit special permits are required......It is not cost prohibitive.....

[captain2k_ca]

The 120gr partitions cost me a buck each....

Currently looking for some H4831....lol

[captain2k_ca]

Got 2lbs of H4831sc and 100 110gr accubonds locally. That was a hair over $200.....ugh.

200 bucks?? Even Canadian that is wayyy too expensive. I do understand things are a bit ....ummmm... different in Canada. Hope it shoots well for you. I've only used a little 4831 SC. Had to try it but have stuck with the old H since I already have it and the loads "worked" up.
