Thanks to those who responded. I made the original post as a joke to bait a couple of buds but they didn't bite. I'm editing this because there are too many hide members out there who are willing to help a fellow member.

Thanks again

Re: So I've got this Remington 5R...........

It took me a while to find a good load for my 5R. While others reported tiny groups using 175SMK and Varget, I couldnt get Varget or SMK's to shoot out of mine for shit.

Then I tried RL15 and 155 Scenars, boy what a difference! I was shooting 5 shot 1/3moa groups at 100yds.

here is my load in case you want to try it out.

155 Scenars
Lapua Brass
46.2gr RL15
CCI BR2 primers
2.855" OAL (out of AICS mags)
2920FPS out of my 5R
