[QUOTE="Sooner44, post: 1029550, member: 75795"] Hello Cowboy, I have several 308 rifles in different brands and twist rates. I have found 165 gr over 44 gr of varget works quite well in all my rifles for hunting purposes. I load 44gr of varget for both 165 sierra SPBT gamekings and 150 gr Sierra SPBT gamekings. You may may want to load a few at 43gr and work up to 45gr to find a load that works best. I know people will jump all over this but.... I find the 1/12 twist likes the 150gr bullets, while the 1/10 will shoot both 150 & 165 very good. Also, consider IMR 4064 as well, this is a good powder that has a burn rate very close to Varget. Hope this helps Sooner [/QUOTE]
