Hornady TAP .308

[Mumbles]

I found a random box of 168 AMAXs in my stuff. Anyone know a good starting point to mirror 168 TAP FPD? Preferably using IMR 4895.

44.0-ish grains of Varget. Don't know about 4895.

Here is the ballistics page

I get 2620fps out of a 22" Bartlien with 42.7gr IMR 4895 168 SMK Win brass and LR primer if that helps.

I mirror the 168 gr TAP loads in my savage to w/in 20 fps with 44.0 gr Varget, COL 2.8". Can't help you with the 4895 though.
