[QUOTE="bamban, post: 2477140, member: 17722"] Back in the day I've seen many 168 SMKS imprint sideways on the target at 1000 yards.. I've shot 185 Jugs through my McCoy's 308 M1 Garand at 1000 yards. The 168 Hybrids do not give up much to the Jugs. Insignificant when the Hybrids are coming out at fairly high speed. These 168s can be pushed hard, their bearing surface is closer to the 155s than they are to the 175s. If y'all can't find Varget, grab any 4320, the discontinued and forgotten powder. The powder work real well. Even the late Don McCoy (probably the best M1 Garand builder that ever lived) recommended the powder pushing the 190 SMKs on his 308 M1 built Garands. [/QUOTE]
