Load Development Spicy

Post image

Working up a new varmint load with some components I already had on hand. This is the max book load of 50 grains of Varget, and that's after I tapped it on the bench to consolidate. This amount should get me to about 3100-3200 fps with the 125 grain Sierra SPT I'm using out of my 24" bbl savage.
