From the pic, does it look like that receiver was lug slotted for a Unertl? Kind of looks like it was, but my eyes may be playing tricks on me.Looks to be a 2 piece base with an A.R.M.S. #5 multi base mount added on top.

I don’t remember, but don’t think it was clip/lug slotted. I know it was a D-prefix serial number…#attentiontodetail

I've got several .308 rifles, but one of my favorites is an old sporterized 1909 Argentine Mauser that was converted to .308. My sons and I shoot in a military vintage silhouette match. (chickens, pigs, turkeys and rams at 200-500 meters). Sometimes I shoot "as issued" with a Swiss K-31, but got the sported Argentine to use in the "vintage military sporter" class. The Argy likes 42.6 grs of IMR 4064 with the Nosler 175gr CC, CCI 200 primer, in FGMM brass. COAL 2.810.This was Fed GMM case, 43.5 Varget, BR2 primer, 180 SMK (I’ve got a ton of them), seated 2.82”
Just for shits and giggles slap a few 168 or 175 MKs over your exact same load and brass and see if much difference.Got a bunch of LC from my rifle team days. But, crimped primers, fired in M14’s, etc…. A lot of work! I’d rather just drink suds and slap shit together!

I know you have a bunch of the 180s but we have never been able to get them to shoot stupid good like 168 and 175s in .308s and the 190s in the 300WMs.
It's only cool if you have a bunch of bullets that aren't being picky little bitches.
If the 168 or 175 fly better out of your guns, maybe load the 180s in your old LC brass for positional training or the apocalypse.???
I bet they’ll shoot “minute of dog”I’ve got a bunch of 175’s and will jam, not jelly, them into the Lapua brass I’ve got.
Your suggestion is exactly what I’m thinking for the 180’s with the Federal and LC brass. Or, I’ll feed these 180’s to my WinMag and warp-speed them into quadruped meaty things.
I feel sure I can get them to do better than the 1.5” mess I had the other day.

When I went to FBI sniper school 1984, I loaded a bunch of my own ammo. 168 and 180. SMKs over IMR 4895. The 180’s kicked like a mule in Fed brass but shot sub .50 moa. That rifle had a Schneider Poly rifling barrel fromJust for shits and giggles slap a few 168 or 175 MKs over your exact same load and brass and see if much difference.
