I have always shot SMK 168s out of my LTR but have recently switched to Nosler Custom Comp. 168 HPBTs. For those of you that have used both, did your loads differ b/t the two in terms of accuracy and velocity?

I didn't notice any difference when using the same powder. The only noticeable difference was the price, which I like. I shoot the 180 smk's from my milspec with great success but unfortunately they don't offer a 180 in Nosler CC.

Same loads that work for sierras worked for my Noslers. Accuracy seems the same. As far as velocity goes I dont have a crono so I dont know.
