    .308 Winchester

    That's too bad you're seeing that much inconsistency, I can assure you that's not the norm. I throw with the same Chargemaster and if it says 42.0 grs, then my FX120 will read no worse than 41.9-42.1 on a bad day. And at that point I'll grab a pair of tweezers and remove or add a couple...

    What powder and primer?

    .308 Winchester

    My velocity with H4895 is 2525. I'm sure you could get close to that with a longer barrel and still mag feed it. I'm shooting them .020 off. Check out post #2746

    .308 Winchester

    Nope. Originally wanted to try 215 Bergers with a Wyatt box to run a longer OAL but I must have gotten an early production BAT Bumblebee action because it would not fit. Turns out, even after I sent dummy rds to JGS with the 215 where I wanted it, the OAL was coming back too long and wouldn't...

    The 185 Berger Juggernaut has outshot every other bullet I have used in an 18.5" .308. It just works.

    He stated he was using an RCBS Chargemaster.

    I've been using an RCBS Chargemaster to throw charges with extruded powders and verifying on an FX120 for 5 years. It's always within .1 to .15

    Not sure what issue you're having. Are you not getting consistent charges? Is it trickling too much powder at the end?

    I am also curious as to what numbers you are trying to achieve.

    I've never had an issue metering H4895 or Varget. Metering powders like N570 can be more problematic because the kernels are so large but the smaller Hodgdon powders are great to work with. How are you throwing charges?

    .308 Winchester

    H4895 is my go to powder for M14 rifles and anything bolt action up to 185 gr, I try and stay with powders that are temp stable whenever possible and H4895 happened to be more accurate than Varget with the 185 Juggernaut in this short barrel, along with being the correct burn rate for the M14...

    Yes, I tried both small and large and the CCI 450 performed the best overall to the point where I could not believe it shot a 10 shot group that I could cover with a dime.

    10 shot group with 185 Juggernaut and H4895. Right at 2515 fps out of an 18.5" barrel

    Try 39.7 grs and 41 grs and see what you get. You are very close to both nodes on Quickload. You are going to be very compressed and way overpressure at 44 grs. This is assuming you are running an OAL of 2.80.

    .308 Winchester

    Something doesn't make sense with your numbers. Did you reverse the average velocities with the first 2 groups by chance? You added a half a grain but lost 62 fps?
