[QUOTE="GTN, post: 1130547, member: 72955"] I shoot 168gr Berger Hybrid hunting with 44gr of Varget and CCI BR2's and recently developed a load with RL-15 and 168 Amax's, haven't settled on charge yet, Lapua brass. Both the Berger and the Amax shoot under 1/2 MOA with specified loads. I have only shot the Amax loads a couple times but the Bergers have been sub 1/2 MOA consistently for a couple hundred rounds. I shoot Varget with the Bergers because it was a little more accurate than the RL-15. This is all being shot out of a 22" Proof barrel with suppressor. I was working a load with 168gr Hunting VLD's and run out of mag room so I went to the Hybrid and it has a touch higher BC anyway. With the VLD's RL-15 was a touch more accurate than Varget. I guess my point is that different powder works better with different bullets in different guns. Like others have said I would also change my primer to a Fed 210/210M or CCI BR-2 or CCI-200. I have a friend that is shooting Fed 215's out of his 308 and swears it doesn't like any other primer. [/QUOTE]
