I am waiting for some advice from Vahtavouri but not holding my breath as they said they will publish some data next year. I have N160 and N560 which both should work with 150-165 grain projectiles. I'll let you know how I go. I am using ELD-X and Sierra MKs in the test loads. Will also try some Hornady 154 round nose for bush bashing!

Cheers

My .284 Win does 2740 fps in a 22” barrel with 58 grains of AR2213sc and 162 ELD-X. It’s throated a bit long and I’m using necked up 6.5-.284 Lapua brass neck turned to 14 thou’ and Fed 210 GMM primers. 5 shot ES was 6 fps on the last range session.

Easy load dev with 2213sc for me.
