Loads for trg22 155gr scenar

[btc624]

I have read the load data on this board for the 308. I have found very few if any that had a trg. I plan on using lapua brass, federal 210m primers, and 155gr scenars. I cant decide on which powder rl-15 or varget . varget seems to be very popular but some say it will burn the throat of you barrel out quicker, but many like it at longer ranges. Rl 15 also very popular Anyone with a trg shoot any of these components??? whats your pet load and what kind of velocity can i expect?

I use RL15, never tried Vargay, with IMR4895 I was blowing out the primer pockets after 3 loads.

155 Scenar, 46.5 N140, Lapua brass, CCI BR2 primer is the preferred for my TRG.

Slightly compressed loads at mag length, no pressure signs for me.

As ever, work up.

Bullet: 155 scenar
Case: Winchester
Primer: CCI
Powder: Varget 47.8 gr (Lapua cases 47.4)
OAL: 2.948

Warning very stiff load, start low, and work up slowly.

I can't help with a load you ask but as a note I have what must be a bastard trg it does not like Varget and Scenars or I should say does not like as well as other loads. I have pushed them everyway I know how, no go. Wanting a 155 load I found 155 Bergers, Win brass, 46.5 VVn150, Fed GM primers, 2.850 OAL, 2860 FPS are the ticket in my TRG.
