[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2683402, member: 313"] TAC proved to be a good powder because it is very dense, and you can get a good weight in the case without compression. However, after a significant amount of load development with the 130 Barnes TTSX, I found that Benchmark was the "magic bullet" for a light mono in a .308Win case. Benchmark provides good load density, high velocity and surprisingly good accuracy. I have shot MANY sub 2" groups at 400yds with Benchmark and the 130TTSX. FWIW - 46.5gr Benchmark will get 3,200 fps with the 124H with single digit SDs. I put 4 bullets into [B]1.42" @ 400yds[/B] but a 5th bullet opened the group to 3.40". [/QUOTE]
