My Hornady manual does not give a listing for Varget. While Sierra has a listing for a 107 grain pill and the hodgen site lists 31 to 33 grains as low and high loadings for an AMAX I was hoping for any input from members running this combo.

Primers are WLR, brass for now is winchester but I have Lapua brass on the way. Im running these out of a Savage with a 26 inch EBCO barrel.

Thanks in advance

Re: 243 win + 105 AMAX + Varget

The Hodgdon website list 31-33grs of Varget for the 105 A-max. I have tried several Varget loads in Win brass using the 105 with fair results through my rifle. Switched to H1000 and am very pleased with the results.

If you have any Ramshot Hunter, give it a try. Also IMR 4350.

Hope this helps
