Speer #13 load
« on: December 13, 2005, 10:39:57 AM »
I was hoping someone could tell me if Speer has Varget listed in their .308 loads in #13.  I have #12 and no Varget loads.   My Sierra manual has Varget, and I have information from Hogdon, But I was hoping someone with a new speer manual could tell me what is reccomended with SPEER bullets.  Thanks for your help.

The #13 Speer manual lists loads for Varget in bullet weights from 110 to 180. I can't type well enough to put all that information in a post.

Hodgdon, Lyman, Speer, Sierra, Hornady = reliable resources
so and so's pages on the internet = not reliable resources
Alway check loads you find on the internet against manuals.
NEVER exceed maximum listed loads.

42 to 46 grains of Varget with a Speer 165 grain at an overall length of 2.8 inches. the specs use a CCI 200 primer and the load has an advertised maximum velocity of 2751fps from a 22 inch barrel.

Steve, there is no doubt in my mind that the Hick appreciates your efforts, but the scan need's to be sent via Private Message, posting it in the open forum get's real close to copyright infriengment

Thanks all.  Looks like Speer and Hogdon are in pretty close agreement this time.  I appreciate all your replies.
