I have been using VV N568 exclusively in three 30 Nosler Rifles chambered with .225fb, all of them consistently hold ES below 20 and SD's below 10, those are very conservative numbers. I started with CCI250 primers, they yielded much higher numbers, ES and SD's cut in half when I switched to Federal GM215M primers
Curious Liddy have your tried N570 and did you see lower ES? I use N570 and H1000 in the 30N but not N568. I use it I other calibers but I generally find single digit ES numbers and slightly lower velocity.

I started all three of my 30 Nosler's with virgin ADG brass, CCI 250 primers and VV N570 for the first 100 rounds, ES and SD's were terrible. They all shot well up to 3,100fps and 600 yards despite the terrible numbers. I then tried VV N568 with the understanding it would not yield the velocity numbers but I was OK with that because I wanted to drop down to the wide 3,050fps node, ES and SD's dropped with the N568 and then dropped in half again with switching to Federal GM215M primers as well.
With my .225fb chambers I may revisit N570 to see how it will push the pile of 245 EOL's that I have. I am hopeful that I can find a repeatable load near 3,000FPS with the 245's, something to tinker with this winter.

All of my loads to date with the 30 Nosler's have been with a Berger 215 Hybrid Target bullets.

Great info. I have switched to the 245's as of this past year. Finding 2,960 there is a wide node. Very forgiving and drives tacks. Using N570 for them.
My 215's are just sitting on the shelf. Wished I had as many 245's was I do in 215's lol.
What twist on the barrel to spin the 245? .225 fb.
9" twist. It's worked well with me. I'm gonna spin up a Brux medium Palma in the near future at 28" to get up in velocity more.
