I went to the range today with my savage edge .243 rifle with a
Bushnell 6x24x power scope with mil-dot recticle. The load i was using was 38.0gr of varget with the hornady v-max 75gr bullet. I chronographed the load and was only getting 3,160
feet per second. I was shooting 3/4 inch 100 yard groups with some 2 shot groups touching.The problem is the velocity is no where near the velocity given in hodgdon manuel with a 75gr bullet.
Does anyone have a good load with the 75gr v-max that gets better velocity than 3,160 fps and is very accurate?
