308 Lapua Scenar 185grainers

Hi,

I bought some 185g Lapua Scenars to shoot out of my LR308. The rifling twist is 1-10 so that's why I wanted to try the heavier projo.

Can anyone suggest a good Varget or Re15 load for this projo?

Thanks

I shoot 40 grains RL15 in Lapua cases, Fed 210Ms for nominal 2400 fps to duplicate Lapua match load. OAL is 2.800 IIRC. This load was worked up in a 26 inch Blaser LRS2 and should be reduced and worked back up for your rifle. I have shot groups less than 1/2" with this load.
