.243 load with 80grain nosler BT

[teebirdhyzer]

Anyone have a load you like for the .243 with nosler 80grain BTs. I have a box of 100, and worked up a reduced "training" load for my Daughter with 27grains of H4895 that shoots about .75 MOA and has almost no recoil. I also loaded a few of the 80 grainers stepping up to max loads for me to shoot, but the accuracy was not that great. This rifle is a standard sporter barrel, and the only other rounds I have tried in it are Hornady superformance 95 grain sst"s that shot 1/2 moa, so I know the barrel can shoot. looking for a good starting place. I have some RL 17 that is doing fantastic in my .270....anyone try it for the .243 with the 80grainers?

yes. 44gr rl17 will shoot bugholes with 80gr nosler bt in my gun. But so will 41.4gr of IMR4064.
80gr bullets in a 243 for some reason are easy to make shoot in my gun, ive shot rl17, 4064, h414, 4350, 760 it likes them all
