[QUOTE="Furious_George, post: 1410285, member: 3263"] I totally forgot about this thread. EZ, I recently settled on 165gn Sierra HPBTs with 40gn of IMR 4895, used Winchester brass, and Winchester WLR primers. Shooting out of my Savage model 10FP, the 100 yard groups have been around 1/2" with my best so far being 0.35". The next time I go out, I'm going to test the loads at 200 and 400 yards and try a bench rest. As for cost breakdown, here's what I have: Bullets: $0.17 (Blemished, bought at Sierra plant in Missouri) Powder: $0.10 Primers: $0.03 Brass: Free, collected from range trips But I suppose if you add in the price of brass when I eventually have to buy more, it would probably even out to about $0.35 per round. Still not too bad for blem bullets. [/QUOTE]
