I have a LRT in 308. win and it shoots in the .3's I am sure with some load development the 300 would do the same and they are very well built really cool stock very nice finish and weather proof, whatever you do spend the same amount or more on the glass you put on it. I have taken deer out to...

sent you a pm

I will take it pm me your info mike

what length barrel are you using I have alot of varget and hope I can find a load with it to get 2650 or so out of a 26'' tube.

thanks for the info I am going to get some 208s and try them if I can get 2650 and accurate that would be a hammer on deer out there a long ways, I shot one with the 178 at 550 yards not a long ways but man it blew through it like no-body's business and left a huge exit the 208 would do just the...

what caliber are you shooting the 208 out of, mine like's the 175's better than the 168's and the 178 a-maxs even better, also what speed are you getting with the208's, I am shooting the 178's at 2740 and they shoot great.

I checked 10 rounds thru the chrono before season and 2740 was the average with only a 9fps difference.The gun is a rem 700 with a 26 inch tube it is the tactical 700 xcr, so far I am amazed with the gun it shoots way better than I ever thought it would. I will try to get the 175s chrono'ed next...

I was shooting 178-amaxs in my 308 win with 45 grains of varget I was getting 2740 fps, I have switched to 175 smk and using the same load. I won't get a chance to chrono them for a while, are these traveling the same speed or how much gain do you think I am getting. They hit 1'' high at a...

I use 45 grains of varget and show no pressure signs, I think these bullets are awesome and I too had to seat them out further than my smk to get them to group good.

fiftydriver was spot on if you want to take game beyond 800 yards you should use a 30 or 338 cal magnum with a big bullet, I am starting out my long range hunting with a 308. and I would not shoot past 800 yards and prefer it 600 and in I am using the a-maxs because I know what they will do at...

you will probably be happy with either one I am a remington fan so last spring when I decided to get into lrh I bought a rem 700 tactical xcr 308. with the 26 inch tube, it shoots awesome will shoot .5 with black hills factory ammo and better with my handloads, I topped it off with a 5.5-22...

use the a-maxs in my opinion, my friend has a 243ai and he uses the 105s I use the 178s in my 308 both of them are killers on whitetail here in idaho even the biggest buck at 600 is no match if you put it tight behind the shoulder or in the ribs they are dead right there, have not had one make...

that stock is awesome looking, and I think thats a great group, if you are a newbie like me we can only get better, I shot a 3.75'' 3 shot at 650 and thought it was great,,,,,,,,,,,,,,good luck and good shooting sounds like you will have no problem getting a better group on paper with practice...

My gun likes 4895 and varget, I get 9 fps for a spread with varget so that is what I am using right now my 1in12 liked 175 smk alot but I am hunting with 178 a-maxs they shoot great to my load is 45.4 grains of varget, this over max so start lower and work up, I stopped here but there is still...

get the swaro we were out today and in not the best conditions we were getting 1950 out of it pretty easy and this was on rocks, brush, trees, etc I have had it read 2200 of rocks on sunny days.
