85 Ballistic Tip over 57.8 grains of H4831SC. Giving me about 3420 fps at the muzzle and sub 1/2-inch groups in my 70 Classic (24-inch barrel). I'm not yet sold on OBT, but this one seems to fall right in there. Charges of plus and minus 0.3 grains yielded 3/4-inch groups.

My go to powder for the 25.06 is RL22 especially with bullets in the 110-120gr range. My favorite combination for deer is the Speer 120gr Hot-Cor in front of 52grs of RL22. I've taken countless deer over the years with this combination with excellent results. I have some other really good loads worked up with various powders but RL22 is no doubt my favorite.

Norma 204 with 100gr NBTs is magic fairy dust in my Zastava Mauser.

Norma MRP with the same bullet is my 1st backup load.

Vihtavouri N-165 and 100gr Sierra MK is my 2nd back up.
