The top finisher this years IBS points standings is your guy, Andy Ferguson.

I would have to look it up in the equipment lists but feel the top 5 all shot Vapor Trails.

I was able to get out and shoot my 6 BR today. I was shooting the Vapor Trail's with Rel-15 and Varget. Rel-15 shot the best at 100 yards. We'll see how well they do at 600 and 1000 at a later date. I was able to shoot 2, 5 shot groups in the 1s. My 28" Krieger .236 barrel liked 30.0 grains of Rel-15 seated well into the rifling. I didn't find a Varget load that shot as well.

I am not suprised. As I do barrel work, I am finding more and more that .237" barrels tune with Varget, and .236" barrels seem to prefer RL15. Not cut and dried, but never the less a trend.

Very interesting. I just had a Dasher barrel chambered, HV .237 Krieger . I'll pay close attention when I tune this one.
