I have one load for 85 gr. Sierra HPBT that work beautifully in long range Savage with varmint contour. This is compressed load of 46gr. IMR4831. However, I got another 243win, #2 contour short barrel sporter Mauser, and the gun does not like this load at all. I tried milder loads with the same powder but it did not like them either. I was wondering if someone uses this bullet in light sporter and has some pet load for it. I have Varget, Reloader 10x, 4064, H414, IMR4350 in my cabinet. Could be that the gun does not like the bullet, but I still would like to make stick with it, as I had taken more deer with it than with any other bullet/caliber. The twist is 1 in 10", 23" bbl.
