Heavy 308 loading

Post by wvfarrier »

I have two loads above this but the accuracy fell off and I have not re-tried them after adjusting my seating depth. These were fired at 200 yards using a Tripod with me sitting in a folding chair. Sig Tango 6 4-14×44, BHO with 20" PVA barrel.
195 grain Sierra TMK
Fed LR Mag Primers
Viht N-550
New Fed Brass
2.880" OAL

I am, by no means, an expert but this load, in this rifle, makes me smile.

I used the cheap 147 FMJs to get my baseline.

I'd use that 46.2 or the 45.6 load as the accuracy load any day of the week!
