I'll have to look it up. Need to do some reloading tomorrow so I'll check it up then.

Care to share your load? I've just worked up some test loads using 69 TMKs for my Sako varmint 1:8 using BM2, 2206H and RL15. That was after having no luck with the new 70gr Nosler RDFs but very good luck with the 53gr Varmageddons (below).

Some people shoot 3-shot groups, some 4, but when your fifth shot does this at 100m, you can either tear your hair out or resign yourself to user error :roll:



Ill have a look on the weekend i have been using bench mark 8208.


22.4gr of 8208 i foung have given me the best results out of my tikka t3x super varmint. Best 5 shot group i have ever shot was .38 @ 100m and best group @ 200 was .7 of a inch its hard to move away from 8208 i havent even experimented with seating depths the way i see it why bother.

Load I was shooting with BM2 was 25.3gn with a 50gn Zmax. Load I am shooting with BM8208 is 25.2gn and same bullet. Couldn't tell you the velocity of the BM2 but I am getting 3150fps from an 18" barrel from the 8208.

As for accuracy/precision: I was shooting at 300yds today and on my second string I plugged about 5 consecutive shots into an inch, just outside the 6 ring, then my final two shots of the day into the X ring. My first string of 10 I shot 7 into the 6 ring, including 4x X and second string I shot 5 into the 6 ring, including 3 into the X. At 300yd, the 6 ring is 3" and the X is 1.5" (1moa and 0.5moa respectively). This is off a cheap Atlas copy bi-pod with no rear bag, just shot off the shoulder. Luckily the wind played nice for me but it is a good indication of how that load can shoot. As mentioned previously, off a bench with good rests at 100m it has no probs shooting 0.3moa groups or better if you can shoot it better.
Also helps that the rifle is a semi custom build but only out of cheap part: how barrel on a Zastave mini mauser action with a cheap Vortex Diamondback scope.

Thanks guys - that's very interesting. I'm getting a chronoed 3200fps from my 25.2 BM2 load out of a 24" barrel. The 53gr Varmageddons/V-maxes (interchangeable with this load) are seated at mag length, or 2.275" OAL.
