What are your 308 win loads with mili/lapua brass?

[Nature Boy]

Here’s my F Class load. Do not use this load unless you work up to it. It’s on the warm side. Hard on primer pockets so brass life is ~ 5 loadings.

185 Berger Hybrids, 43.5g H4895, Federal 210M primer, Lapua brass, touching the lands, 2,728 fps

2,728 that's moving.

Yeah. There’s a lower node using 42.7g (2,629fps) that’s just as accurate and easier on the brass but you give up some wind drift and that can make the difference between holding the 10 ring or dropping a shot.

I now shoot 155 Lapua Scenars over 45.3gr of Shooters World Precision Rifle powder. Couple thousandths off the lands. Slmost 2900 fps and same Bc as 175 SMK. This combo I shot my personal best group ever at .25". Also shot sub .5" on both sides during load workup.
