Having a hard time finding side by side results for these 2 bullets. Specifically in a 308 win. I understand the length and subsequent BC differences, just trying to figure what seems to be the more forgiving of the 2. Any advice/input would be great.
FYI - they'll be run in AICS mags with no blinder plate, so I'm not really worry about a longer than average COAL.
 
I run the juggernaut with 44.5 Gns varget mag feed .2-.3 inch groups at 100 and under 1/2moa at distance.
The hybrids I got a load at 44.8 of varget with same group at 100 .going to shot the hybrids tomorrow at a match I'll update with results at distance 800 yard match

What brass and speed are you getting? I ran ladders at 500 yesterday and am pretty sure I found low nodes for each, but didn't load up enough higher to find a faster node. Jugs seemed to group better, but hybrid node was ~40 fps faster. Going out again today to check current nodes and test for higher ones.

The juggernaut r running 2705 29" barrel
Didn't chrono the hybrids
 
Shot the hybrids in match today used same dope as juggernaut. Hybrids r running faster in my barrel had to come down 1moa at 800 . But they grouped great not much vertical only horizontal from a 10 mph wind
