My loads are for my rifle. Get a reloading manual (I prefer Sierra's) and work it up. You will gain valuable knowlege that you will retain for the rest of your life as well as a relationship with your rifle that you would not necessarily gain any other way. That being said, I prefer 4064 powder, either IMR or Hogdens. And I use Benchrest primers from CCI.

Well guys, after trial and error and helpful suggestions from this forum I'm finally achieving sub moa at 100. First I reloaded 168gr Nosler comp, IMR 4895 42gr. OAL 2.815. Also removed the howitzer type muzzle brake and wow she's buck'n now,but I'll sacrifice this for accuracy.

Just to add I initially started loading  with an OAL of 2.80 this closed up my groupings bUT not the moa I was looking for. So what I've observed was increasing  the OAL from 2.80 to 2.815 made a huge  difference.

I have neither the time nor the initial investment funds to reload right now, but hopefully next year. I have a RRA predator HP and out of the box, 100 yards benchrest I was at 3/4" first time out. I shot 168 grain FGMM and have a 20" barrel, and did no break in as the barrel is a heavy stainless that is cryogenically treated, air gauged and triple lapped. If you have accuracy issues I can say that the FGMM is very very accurate, and will put a huge deer down hard. Hope it helps!
