Any of you guys running Federal 215's in your 308 Win? I have been running Varget with Federal 210's with so so accuracy. Just curious with the 215 and Varget, if the hotter primer would help with accuracy?
 
Re: Fed 215

It's hard to get a 308 to not like Varget. So before you go and change primers, how about some more information, like:

What rifle?
What bullets have to tried?
What your COAL?
What loads of Varget?
What's your accuracy expectations?
Are your shooting from a bags on a bench or Bipod?
Have your tried any factory match ammo in this rifle, and how did it shoot?

Get back to us.....

Re: Fed 215

According to an article in "Handloading" it seems to...the guy there used CCI Mag rifle primers. You do have to back off a couple of grains and work back up to speed. Not just from what I have read, but from personal experience.
