[QUOTE="Speck, post: 665249, member: 41921"] Been working up a load for my TC Icon Precision Hunter 308 (22 inch barrel) with 168 VLD's (Hunting/Orange box). I was testing all charges with bullets touching the lands and getting sub MOA results with several charges for 3 shots but when i started testing with 5 shot strings only 2 charges were under moa but being a factory rifle it has a deep chamber and wasn't even close to fitting in the mag. I figured what the hell I'll load em in the mag way off the lands (.140) and bingo the **** thing shot the best group yet. .331 for 5 shots at 100 yards. Now to test at longer distances and see what happens. 44gr Varget, Fed 210 match primers, Lapua brass, .140 off lands. 2650 average speed with ES 19 [/QUOTE]
