[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 957304, member: 63748"] Fire formed Lapua brass Brass was neck sized only using bushing .002” smaller than loaded OD Neck very slightly expanded using Sinclair .307 expander mandrel BR-2 primer 44.5 gr Varget 168 gr sorted base to ogive A-Max 2.817” OAL AVG A 14 YOA JR took the 600 yard F-TR match with this load this past weekend with a 197 followed by a 198 shooting a factory Savage F/TR while competing in his first match. This load has additionally shot well in another of my F-TR factory rifles. The A-Max may not be the best preferred bullet but for the price they work great and can occasionally take a match or two. I have not used the 168 VLD in the factory Savage but have used the 168 Hybrid. For the 168 gr bullets the A-Max has produced better results for me. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
