Have used both Rem and WW brass successfully. Any advice? Various manuals show up to 48.5 grains of Varget as max with 150-grain bullets in the .308, due to differences in bullets, powder lots and brass. BUT, I seat them out to 2.816" COAL, which is about 0.020" off the lands in the 22" barrel of my Win 70 classic stainless featherweight. I've been shooting a .308 load with Varget that's been working perfectly, with no excessive pressure signs, but now I'm wondering if it could be on the warm side, after hearing some of the loads quoted in this thread. I shoot 45.5 with the 165gr HFBIL and the Barnes 168 TTSX.

Thanks for the input from all!

In my present .308, a Merkel K1 single-shot, I use 150-grain AccuBonds, and relied on Nosler data to work up the load. And it will be slighly compressed.

However, loaded down to around 2600 fps with around 43 to 43.5grs of Varget out of the 20" barrel of my old Browning BLR, they do MUCH better.Point 1: I always follow the powder manufacturer's load data. I shot a number of combo's, including Varget.

Of course anything within 20-25 fps is considered pretty much temp-resistent, but it impressed me anyway!Using Winchester brass, Fed 210 primers and Nosler BT my 22" barreled rifle achieves 2814 fps at the pressure limit with 46.5 grains of Varget.

Can I simply load like I would for a .308 bolt gun as long as I full length resize?I'm planning to use 150s and Varget in an M1A with an 18.5" barrel.

Thats YOU get used to it... yeah I remember, but like Ruger, I couldn't resist....Slightly off-topic - I grabbed some AA2520 that was on sale at a good price, figuring I could use it in my M1A, but I see now Zediker is saying nothing slower than 4064 in the M14/M1A, and 2520 is just past 4064 on the burn chart. At the time, I had no published data for the 150gr SST and Varget, so I took the data I had on hand from Hodgdon and Nosler, started at a safe level and worked up from there.

Various manuals show up to 48.5 grains of Varget as max with 150-grain bullets in the .308, due to differences in bullets, powder lots and brass. First, I developed that load in 2007. Fixed German 4x on it yea just what I need.! Check your scale with a balance scale or Lee dipper for comparison. If you encounter the above signs, they usually mean you are already over max and in danger territory. The top velocity (2989 fps) was provided by 2000 MR. Can I simply load like I would for a .308 bolt gun as long as I full length resize?Wow, that is quite a resource. My comment about having the wrong bullet for your application was in response to your comment:But, I really don't like the SST's all that much at that velocity.

30-378 Wby Mag.

I have great results with 44gr Varget and Hornady 150gr BTSPSierra's data was shot in Federal brass, which is thicker and lower capacity.I have great results with 44gr Varget and Hornady 150gr BTSPYep, sounds familiar.
Same results too. The book does not stipulates it is a compressed load. They know their product better than anyone else especially if there are changes or variations in their product.

From "flattened" primers, to difficult bolt lift, case head expansion, ejector marks, case head swipe, etc none of them are worth much without a chronograph. 30 TC.
