[QUOTE="Denny2277, post: 790149, member: 26174"] Ok, I worked up a great load for my Savage 308 Precision Carbine 20" 1in10 twist. Using new Nosler brass, Federal 210M primers, 178 grain A-Max bullets and 43.2 grains of Varget. I could get 1/2 groups at 100 yards. When I went to buy more brass I couldn't find any Nosler and with all the great things I've been hearing about Lapua I thought I'd give it a try. I worked up a ladder test using the same other components and starting with 43 grains of Varget. All the groups were around MOA but no where near the accuracy I was getting with the Nosler brass. I worked up to 44.2 grains in .3 grain increments with the Lapua. Should I have started lower because of the Lupua having less case capacity? [/QUOTE]
