(rifle is a Kimber Montana... 1:9.5 twist) Steve Olson from here on the fire worked up a few loads for mine and mine wasn't very fussy. Think everything ran under 1 1/2", with several loads 1/2-3/4" Believe he tried 4831sc?? & R22. Didn't have great results with a 140g partitions. Rifle loved 150g ballistic tips, 150g partitions and 160g accubonds. He's had a couple of the same rifles that while not bad, weren't as easy as mine was to load for. Nosler brass and he used Winchester primers I'll see if I can get him to chime in on his experiences

Mine shot everything from 120's to 175's well, but the outstanding loads were the 150 Ballistic Tip and 60.5 H4831, and the 156 Norma Oryx with 59.0 H4831. Both shot well under an inch at right around 3000 fps from a 22" barrel.

The 150's and 160's ( noslers BT, AB) all shot well with RL 22 at 10-15 thou off the lands. At about 3050fps if I recall correctly Most were at book max for powder charge. 4831 didn't fair as well but was still plenty good enough for hunting accuracy. Best loads were the 150 BT and 22. Those would plunk in there well under moa. I was very impressed with his Montana.

62 gr of H4831SC with a 140 gr Triple Shock works best in my Kimber Mtn. Ascent after playing around with others.
