new sps varmint 308
« on: December 20, 2008, 03:44:42 PM »
I'm looking for anyone to share their pet loads for this gun. I just bought one 2 weeks ago and shot it last week with handloads and federal match ammo. Groups were ok but not great. best groups were 40.4 gr. Reloader 15 with 168 gr. smk. These were less than m.o.a. but are on the weak side. All other groups were 1 to 1.25 m.o.a. I know the rifle isn't broken in and should get better but am wanting to try some loads that others have found to be good. All in all I am very happy with the rifle as I am with all my other Remingtons and expect it to be a good shooter after some work. The X Mark Pro trigger is very nice except for the slick trigger, wish it had the grooves on it like the old ones, but it adjusted nicely
it's the Bill of Rights not the Bill of Needs

 I have never broke in a rifle all my rifles shoot moa. To me you got a shooter I bet if you which bullets to 150 with that 1-12 twist it will be better.
