Re: Loads For .308 Winchester
Mike D., I had similar results to yours with the Parker Hale barrel, at least in close, 100- 200 yds. Load follows:
Mauser 98 action
Parker-Hale 1-14.4 twist 26"
Hornady SST 150gr
Varget 48.0 with no pressure signs
Fed 210M primers
Loaded to 2.92" OAL to get .005 off the lands love the long action Mauser mag...
Avg velocity was 2997fps, max deviation was +/- 8fps
best ever 5 shot group was .475 edge to edge, corrected for bullet dia, makes a 5 shot .167 ctc, avg groups ran around .250-.375" with this load, in this rifle. Going off of memory and prior posts at the moment, as all my reloading gear and notes are packed away.
*anyone still have the M-118LR clone load data with 175's and RL-15 in LCLR brass, stored away, mine is somewhere...?
