[QUOTE="cornchuck, post: 842201, member: 20220"] Anyone using Hornady's 178 grain BTHP Match out of a .308? I tried some the other day out of my stock Rem 700P at 200 yards. The grouping was better than I thought it would be. I like that they have a higher BC than most other bullets in that weight range (.530). I had them loaded under 41.7grs. of Varget in Rem brass being set off by CCI BR2 primer. I seated them to mag length which would be around 2.812" (2.145 to the ogive). If I was figuring right, haven't ran through a chrony yet, they should be going about 2450fps or a little better at the muzzle. Going at that speed, will they make it to the 1000yrd. line without any problem? I would like to hear about this bullet a little more out of your gun. Rifle: Remington 700P (stock) 26" barrel with 1:12 twist Jason [/QUOTE]
