No, but I load the 70 gr Speer Blitzking over 39.5 gr of Varget in Win brass with Win LR primers and get sub-MOA groups - sometimes 1/2 MOA.

yeah, I shoot them out of 243s and a 6mm Rem also...

46-47g of H4350, Win primer, bullet kissing the lands= 3600fps and shooting a tiny group, Rem 700 Stainless.

I shoot them in a 12 twist 243AI using H414. They used to be a great cheap/accurate bullet... they're still accurate, but not as cheap as they once were. Not the bullet you want if you're looking to save hides!

I loved em in my 243. Only time they failed to blow a rock chuck clear in half was when I didn't quite dead-center one. Sold that 243 and only just happened across another. Still have a few of those TNTs, IIRC, so I'll try em again.
