Post 'em here. Especially looking for 110g, 125g, 130g stuff.

I had a 130g load years ago that would turn 'chucks into frothing pink giblets. I'll have to dig that one back up and post it. I think I was getting around 3200fps out of a 26" bbl. It was seriously like you'd convinced the hapless woodchuck to swallow a bit of C4. Makes me giddy just thinking about it.

110g Sierra
47.5g Varget
Fed 210M
3200 fps Very Accurate Varmint Load, 2.650" COAL

110g Hornady V-Max
47.0g Reloader 15
Fed 210M
3200 fps Accurate, hard-hitting Varmint Load. Try .010" into lands.

125g Sierra SP
47.0g Hodgdon H335
Fed210M
Sierra's Hunting Load, 26" bbl, 2.700" COAL
 
Re: .308 Varmint Loads

these are mine , all with 110 vmax
<span style="color: #FF0000">h335 </span> 49 gn 2.740oal = 3350fps best groups 1 hole at 100y

<span style="color: #FF0000">aa2460</span> 48.7gn 2.230 to og =3360fps

<span style="color: #FF0000">r15</span> 50gn = 3120fps very poor results with es
<span style="color: #FF0000">varget</span> 47 gn 1" groups @ 100yards =3100fps

<span style="color: #FF0000">vit n130</span> 45.5gn = 3200fps


out of these i would say the 335 worked the best,
barrel is 1:11 @610 mm
