MONTANA308 Posted April 28, 2013 Report Posted April 28, 2013 One of the LGS had some 168gr vld target .308 and some 168 hunting bullets. Also picked up 500 Berger .224 77gr otm tactical bullets. Was wondering if you guys have any info in loading these in gas guns. And which powders you used? any info helpful thanks.
Dane Armory Posted April 29, 2013 Report Posted April 29, 2013 On the 77gr otm projo's load to mag length and start loads at 90 to 92%. I have been experimenting with benchrest and magnum primers with the heavy 223 bullets. Berger makes very high quality bullets but for a price.
Dane Armory Posted May 4, 2013 Report Posted May 4, 2013 I made up 50 Sierra Match King's , 80 gr HPBT for 1 - 7 twist barrels with 1x LC brass , CCI BR4 primers. Col was 2.295" to 2.303". That is my mag length. Bullet length 1.080" to 1.089". Ten each at five levels. Used IMR 4064 powder @ 20.8 gr , 21.2 gr , 21.6 gr , 22.0 gr crush, 22.4 gr compressed.
