    .308 185gn Berger hybrid w/ varget issue

    I upped the work up charge to 44.4 and got 2613 with SD of 5.4 and ES of 10, I had one that was pretty far off from the others so that might be an issue. This was chronoed at 10 yards. I may go with this load the work up showed the most promising. I am worried the load is too hot but I have no...

    .308 185gn Berger hybrid w/ varget issue

    I know 44gn + would be too much for gas but every system is different I would do a work up. I would imagine 43.5 would work as a top on for a gas gun. I would start at 41gn and work up from there.

    Side note from berger, nose portion is .831 on that load which is measured from ogive forward which means the actual OAL would be approx 3.117 at lands and if I backed off .020 would be 3.097... very very long.

    .308 185gn Berger hybrid w/ varget issue

    Hi all, I am having a problem with a load development on 185 hybrids, I am starting 41gn varget. I measured my lands to be at 2.286" from oglaive (~2.993" not oglaive). I wanted the round to fit into PMAG 5 AC but has a OAL of 2.900". The smallest I can load to feed properly is 2.870 OAL is...
