[QUOTE="GNERGY, post: 785182"] My barrel is 26 in. long 1 in 10 twist Krieger that I chambered with a PTG 308 95 Palma reamer. I also had it Melonited ( salt bath nitrided ). It started out as a 1.450 Dia. 300WSM with 300 rounds thru it that I bought from a guy on Accurate Shooter for $130. I had it bore scoped and then I turned down the OD to 1.250 for 7 inches and tapered it to 1.100 at the muzzle and put a brake on it. I have tried Varget up to 47 grs with different seating depths from .015 into the lands to .100 off the lands and none of those shot as good as this load. I load the 168's .060 off the lands and I can shoot 1 1/4 groups at 500 laying prone off of one of my bipods with no problem. I had a factory 5R barrel on this before I put the Krieger on and it liked 47 grs. of AA 2520 and pushed the 168 Hybrid at 2800 fps. Tarey [/QUOTE]
