The LBC bug has bit me. Got a 264 upper from Ritch last year. Now i'm waiting for my 243 barrel.

Any body shooting these. COL 2.210 puts me .010 of the lands. Tried RL 15 and AR Comp groups were nothing to brag about. I was getting compressed loads at 27.6 with both powders. Might try 8208 or H 4895

8208 is my go to powder in the 243 LBC. It has always performed well for me with any of the 95's I've shot.

Have you shot any 100 grainers out of your 243 LBC? I kind of like the 103 ELD-X. Havn't tried any yet.

No I have not. Just a few 105's but the 95 is the best trade off balance point for BC, TOF and speed for me in my work at long range.

The 90's literally shoot one hole out of my Tac. Ord. barrel. Was thinking heavier as this will be more of a hunting rig. Don't really want to say it, but it may replace my 264 LBC upper that i got from Ritch.

I would look at the 85 grain Sierra Game King if the 95 Nosler Partitions don't work well.

90 grain Ballistic Tips work best for me so far. The 95 Ballistic Tips were mediocre but I've only tried one powder with them.

Same here with the 90 NBT's. I decided to stick with the 90's. I can load the ELD-X to the lands. I'm going to play with seating depths this week end.

Let us know how that works out. I'd be interested in hearing about your results.

Will do. By the looks of the weather forecast it probably won't get done until the middle of next week.

Wind here has not been co operating. 10-15 with 25-40 gusts. It's been this way all week. I want to shoot groups at 200 yds.

2 mph 1/4 value wind 15 degrees. Thought i better give it a try. Compressed load of AR Comp .015 off the lands at 100 shot 1/2 MOA at 200 nothing less than 1 MOA. I guess 8208 is up next. What surprised me is on the new burn rate chart AR Comp is listed right under 8208. All this time i used RL 15/ Varget load data. Almost forgot. AV 2789 ES 33 SD 11.7

The speed is right in the ball park for usability.
