What speeds are doing you best for the 208?

Im having a hard time getting the vertical dispersion under MOA durring re-work up.

Horizontal is in the 1/4-1/3 MOA but vertical is being stubborn.

Ive covered 2750 - 2850 FPS with 74 and 75 gr charges of H1000 which is where my old load was...with ES's in the low 30's.

26" 1-10" LW Tube chambered in 300WM Match
 
Re: Your fav. speed for the 208 A-MAX?

In my old barrel, the speed I got was around 2880 fps for the AMAX using RL25. I sent the rifle to GAP last year to get a new barrel. If you are able to keep sub MOA for the horizontal string, but not vertical, then have you looked into other factors which could cause your vertical stringing? Here is an attached link to the problem. Good luck.
