I'm looking for an accurate load for a Savage 16 in 308. Would like to use either 150gr SST or BT . I have 4064 ,Varget and IMR 4350 along with H380 ,H414 and Benchmark. Yeah i've got a bunch of manuals ,just thought someone may have a favorite load. Thanks in advance for any help.

I do not have a favorite 150gr load bu my 168gr SMK load is below. What it does not show is my LC match brass loads are all under 1/4 at 100 yards.

Hey troutnut I use 46.5 gr of varget under a 150 Sierra game king (I worked it up slowly) but this load puts 5 shots inside an inch at a 100 yards and I've taking several deer with it.
