Just got this older 40x in 308,load that was used for 100 Y 200 Y WAS IMR 4895 AND 168 GR SMK shot quite good
noteing it has a 1/14 twist I was thinking maybe the 155gr SMK might work ? the other bullets I have are 168gr Berger Hybrids that work extremely well in my Rem 700 HV in .308 with 43gr Varget
any help on loads you might share would be appreciated

Good luck...……….Dan
