So far I'm getting sub moa, five shot groups (avg of three groups)out of Pri Partizam 168 g Match, M118 LR, BVAC 168 g A Amx Match, 43.1 grains of RL-15 under 168 g A-Max or 175g SMK. What is working for you?
 
Re: LMT MWS What is your accurate load?

Every match rd I've tried GM168,175 IMI168,win 168 have been sub moa.US gi ball was 1.25 and around 1.5-1.8 for a few overseas surplus rounds.My two reloads 44.5 varget with 175s and 43.5 ramshot tac and 175s were also well submoa.

Right now loading 168 AMAX over 44gr IMR 4895 in Rem brass and CCI 200 primers ~~2.820"

The groups are 1MOAish with these loads but Im going to a shooting clinic thing on sunday so these will have to do for now. I would be in much better shape if some 178 amaxs appeared in front of me right now.
 
Re: LMT MWS What is your accurate load?

anyone shoots 150gr or 155gr in theirs? 44gr of Varget behind a 150gr FMJ did about .5-.6" while 44.3gr of Varget behind a 155gr Palma did 2.5-3" (guess it did not like it). These were average of 5 rd groups... I only had 15 rds of the 150gr and 5 of those were to get zero. the 155gr I had 50rd and after 4 groups, I didn't want to waste anymore ammo (this load do .5" in my bolt guns).. will load more 150 to be sure, but would like to know some pet loads from members with their MWS's.

This is the components I have on hand
RL15
Varget

150 fmjbt
155 SMK
168 SMk
155 Scenars

These were the components used in the groups: WLR, R-P brass..

What 150 grain FMJBT are you using?
 
Re: LMT MWS What is your accurate load?

150gr from Golden West Brass (currently out of stock, good stuff though and cheap, for bulk bullets, they weigh in at exactly 150gr (last batch did anyways)

Anyone have any new updates? I'm getting sub-MOA with 44.5 to 45 of Varget behind a 175g Nosler Competition, going out again tomorrow to refine the powder adjustment and will advise, do not have a Chrono, what kind of Velocities are you guys getting?

+1 that's excellent
 
Re: LMT MWS What is your accurate load?

I have shot BH 168 and 175 and some M118LR all have been sub MOA and I shot some 147gr South African ball that was 1.5-2moa.

The 118LR I took out to 600 with an Elcan 6x and it was a freaking laser beam.
