Funny story, but when I got my 9.3x62 I used 60 grains of RL15 with the 250 Accubond. It would bug hole them at 100 yards. I had a 6x36 with dot in it. Well, long story short I roughly got it zeroed on the main crosshair at 200 and took it 300, using the 1st dot, hit right on point, 400 with the 2nd dot and it was spot on, I shot steel all Summer with that load. Never chrono'ed it until the fall. Well, once I did, to my surprise it was only 2400 FPS AVG..

If I never knew I would have guess 2600 but it worked out fine to at least 400 yards for me. I have since bumped it up some to 2650, but I'd bet those AB's would still work fine at a measly start of 2400 since it already carries some decent frontal area before expansion..
