[QUOTE="liltank, post: 543852, member: 13275"] I would caution this load for anyone who wants to try it. It's a hot load from my experience with Varget and 178 bullets. Start at 44.0 grains and see if you can work up to it. Especially if it is set in the lands, that is a lot of pressure for a .308 case. I know a couple guys that swear by 43.0 grains of RL15 w/ 175 SMK's. 43.5grains is the standard for 168 SMK's. The military sniper load M118LR is 43.0grn of RL15, LC brass, Federal 210 match primer, and 175 SMK. Their match grade is with Federal brass in the same load specs. Tank [/QUOTE]
