[QUOTE="trebark, post: 341719, member: 19172"] Be careful with the Varget. It can have quite a bit of variance from batch to batch. If you have two pounds, check to make sure that the lot numbers are the same. If they are not, you will need to start your load development over when you get to the second can. Buffalobob on this board had a pet load for his 308 using varget. When he ran out he got another batch and for some reason went ahead and put together bunch of rounds for a casual f-class match (without any testing). From the first shot, he had to beat his bolt open with a hammer. Also, be aware that varget is an extreme powder and it will shoot differently based on the ambient temperature. [/QUOTE]
