300 Norma Mag

I believe N565 was the direct result of what VV liked about N560 and N570 and tried to combine those attributes into a more stable powder for military applications. I have seen less speed and more consistency with it then N570,
Yeah I love n565 it's very consistent and stable. Just not as much speed as n570 but I've grown to accept it. N568 should be worth 50 to 75 feet more
 
I have a 300 PRC coming and have N565, N568, N570 and H1000 on hand to try with 245 Bergers. My guess is N565 or H1000 will be what I end up.
 
It's a shorter barrel so it may need a faster powder than Retumbo. And If I can get 2700-2750 out of it, I'll be happy. If what I have on hand doesn't give me what I want, that will be the next option.

N570 is the optimum powder for performance in the 300 NM but know the price to be paid. I would recommend cleaning at shorter intervals than you may be used to, it definitely seems to help with consistency.

i definitely never stated 1/4” all day long. I wouldn’t say all day long to 1 moa cause shit happens lol.

Oh I know you didn't, I was just clowning on previous comments about people saying stuff like that with nothing to back it up. I hope I can get close to your results when I get mine up and running :)
