Yes I have 306 pieces. Clayton at WTO thinks 900 to 1000 before the barrel is shot out so I should be able to get 3 reloadings. Its a shame as its a laser. 5.4 mils at 1k yards is sexy. I have thought about tracking down another 300-400 pieces so I could spin another one for safe keeping. I only have 129 on the barrel so far. 133 berger elite hunter at 3297 fps since the eld-m wasnt out when we did load dev 71.9grs Vihtavouri N568. I was able to find enough of the same lot powder for the life of the barrel as well. It shoots that good with just necking down and loading virgin brass. I havent even gotten to shoot fireformed brass yet.

First of 2024. Custom Remington 700 25-06, 115 Berger VLD hunting over H1000 doing 3050 at the muzzle .I was hunting the edge of a bean field when this fella and two other bucks came out. 195 yd shot, he ran about 30 yds back where had come from and piled up. Pretty typical coastal SC deer.

FYI for anyone looking for some and these appear to be similar or maybe even the same as the Blackjack 131gr bullet although I thought the 131 Blackjack had a "pointed" tip similar to the Berger 135's and these 131 Sierra's don't look to have that. Anyway, Sierra as of now has 100cnt and 500cnt boxes of these in stock if any 25 cal shooters are looking for some.

I've gotten a couple deer and hogs with my uncles old Rem 700 ADL 25-06. I am using 115gr Nosler BT over H4831. No chrono data. It is shooting 1.5" groups, but I added a Timney trigger and moved over my Trijicon Accupoint 2.5-10 to it and will see how it groups with the NBT's after that. If it stays 1.5 MOA I'll probably just stick with it as my backup rifle for box blind hunting. I just got in a couple hundred of the NBT's since I only got 100 to start with this caliber.
