M40A1 and MST-100 Reloading Data?

Those of you with spec M40A1 builds using a MST-100 or Unertl 10X, what is the recipe you are using to match the BDC?

I know that the USMC has issued 173 grain Match "White Box" M118, 173 grain Special Ball and 175 grain M118LR, and I am assuming that the Unertl/MST-100 is set up for the White Box, but what is the load actually working for you?

Thanks.

Per a friend who has this pretty nailed down...

Lapua case
43.6gr Varget
210m
175 SMK

That's the load I'll be trying in my A1 when it's done.

I once read that army loads IMR 4064. Or did at one time. I will try it when my MS 100 comes back from repair.
