Trashy, given this first pass, I will say that all groupings provided me with acceptable accuracy to take the load hunting and be assured of a one shot, humane kill on a deer and a hog, provided I do my part!  And I agree with you that the 2527 fps node should deliver just that.  My next exercise is going to be take a hunting bullet (rather than a match bullet), like the 108 grain Berger Elite Hunter, and test it around the 2527 node.  Then I will take a Sierra 100 grain ProHunter and do a work-up on it.  It should provide some pretty good MV numbers as well, providing my rifle likes working with a smaller, lighter bullet.
