[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 30130, member: 25"] We have been shooting the 168 Triple Shocks for several months now in .308 Win. rifles and obtaining excellent accuracy and performance on deer. Have had several 500+ kills and farthest of 710 yards on mule does. Found that you can go slightly higher with Varget than the accuracy load for the XLC's. Only problem to date is holding the bullet in place, we are compressing the charge significantly and the compressed powder "pressure" is pushing the bullet outward - O.L.'s go to hell, ammo will not fit into mag well, but shoots like a charm. Going to play with a slight crimp or different sizing die to try to get a bit more grasp on the bullet. All brass was full sized, but not enough neck tension to hold the bullet in place. [/QUOTE]
