Load #3 is supposed to be a duplicate of the MK 118 Long Range Cartridge using the Sierra 175gr SMK. Your bullets ARE the 175 SMK. This load went .600" in my FN/Douglas barreled .308.

According to a data sheet, 41.7grs of IMR 4046 will push this bullet to 2580 FPS.

David... I sent you an-mail... you want me to split the difference and load 1/2 of each weight or do you want them all one way? Send me an e-mail with YOUR final decision and I'll get to work on them.
