Loading for the 155 Scenar?

[FootSoldier]

Is there an optimum velocity window for this bullet? I have read where some people claim that the best performance is found by getting to certain minimum level of velocity? I just wanted to check before I begin working up a load.

Thanks!

I have had them shoot 1/2 MOA at 2750 to 2900. In 4 guns.
Great bullet. 45.5 gr Varget, Lapua case, Russian primer, 2.820
in my GAP shoots. Varying the O.L. slightly made it my go to
load in 4 guns.

45.5gr Varget with Win or Lapua cases and 210M primers out of a 24" Bartlein barrels. Shoots the lights out!

45.5 and 45.6 gr Varget in a 24" barrel for 2800 fps. 46.7 for 2950fps. The latter is pretty high pressure and will give you about 2K rounds before your throat starts eroding.
