I know I need to work up the load myself but just got a new vanguard sub moa and was wondering if anyone has a great 110 accubond load? starting/max/ and velocities if you can please. I always compare to manuals but don't like to reinvent the whole wheel if I don't have to. Thanks!

I did a search and came up with a wealth of info. I'll start with RL22. Looks like 100 gr bullets are the most popular for most of the 257 users. I have RL22,25, and IMR7828 sitting around so one of those will probably do just fine. I did see where one guy claimed some great results using ramshot magnum. That peaks my interest as its a ball powder and purportedly easier on throats.

My load in my Vanguard for the 110 Accubond is as follows:
Work up to this, because this is max in my rifle.

Fed 215 M primers
110 Accubond
75 grains of Ramshot Magnum
3477 FPS

I agree with the other poster though, I like the 100 grain bullets better out of the 257 wby.

Oh, I happened to use Ramshot Magnum in my above load, but overall, I feel RL-22 is the Cat's Meow in the 257 wby.
