Looking for pet loads AR-15 using 77gr Nosler's

[BgBmBoo]

Anyone using the Nosler Custom Competition 77gr BTHP bullets in their AR's?
I have a bunch of these and have decided to give them a try for some high power shoots.

Thanks,Stan

24-24.5 varget was what I was told; I made a ton at 24.3 grains and they shoot great. 2650fps out of a buddy's 20" 1:7 chrome lined.

Not knowing any more - take from this what you will

I'll double check my data when I get home but I believe my pet load is 25gr of r15 with cci primers seated to Max length for the mags I use, around 2.28

Stan,
Not a direct match to your load but I'm running 24 grains of Varget with 77 SMK's, CCI 400's and WCC cases (loaded mag length). They are in the 2700 fps range, 24.5 gave me 2750 with no noticable group change at 100. I shoot the above load for Service Rifle (RRA NMA2, Wylde chamber 1:7) out to 600 yards. Hope this helps some.

Thanks guys.
I have been using 77gr SMK's over 24.3gr of RL-15. But I am out of SMK's and have this box of 250 77gr Nosler's. Figure the load data should be pretty close to the SMK load.

Take care,Stan

Benchmark does great with 77SMK

At mag length the charge is not near as compressed as with Varget and accuracy has been better for me.

TAC Does great with 77's as well...

77SMK / Nosler with 25 Grains of Varget - I crank em out of my 550, seated to mag length. Sub MOA all day through my LaRue.

I used 24.5 RE15 with 77 Nosler's at mag length for Across the Course. Always performed very well.

Good Luck
