Now that I am done shooting matches until January I was able to make a quick run out to the range tonight to do a seating depth test to finish up my load development in my .308 Win for 190gn Sierra Match Kings over RL17. I knew I wouldn't have a lot of shooting time so I just loaded up three each at .010", .030', and .050" from the lands and shot them at 300yds. I'll be sticking with .010" jump for .281 MOA:  That load averages 2645fps with an ES of 20fps and SD of 9fps. |

Looking pretty good! The 190gr or 200gr SMK was my windy day bullet at the tactical matches. In my 30-06 I would pump them out a tad hotter, around 2800fps for the 190s. It would shoot .4 all day out of a factory heavy barrel.

I just did a bang up job a week or two ago in a Tac match with that rifle but was required to shoot factory ammo. I shoot 175gn Sierra Match Kings for a living so it turned out just fine and I won the long range advance stage. I would have finished 3rd overall but I killed a hostage on day one while standing on my partner's shoulders in order to shoot over a barricade. So instead of starting out on top at that match I spent all week digging out of a hole but made a good come back with a 1st and several 5th place finishes.
