[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 1924056, member: 109378"] Raudy 707...A couple of suggestions: 1. Switch to the 165 gr MRX; better BC and expands more reliably 2. Try 41-45 grs RL-15, 40-43.5 grs H4895, or 41-45.5 grs of Varget-- Out of the Barnes Manual #4. I load for a friends .308 and he has a 22" barrel in SAKO 85. I use Lapua brass and CCI BR-2 primers. We found best results with 41.5 gr H4895, 43 gr Varget and, 43 gr RL-15. RL-15 gave the best velocity of 2670 FPS with about a .9 MOA. Varget gave a bit better group .7 moa but was a little slower around 2600 and H4895 turned in 2550 and accuracy was .8 moa, so he opted for velocity. [/QUOTE]
