Load for Berger 185 juggernaut 308 Win

[Will]

just got in 1K+ of the Juggernauts & in another trade picked up another 2K of the old Lapua 185 D46. Have 2 new barrels being installed. a Brux 1N11.25 twist for a Rem 700 & a Kreiger 1N10" for my Tubb. All this is in 308 Win.
OK here is my question... looking for loads using IMR4064, N150, 2000MR.
Yes, I posted a almost fantastic load using 2000MR but then I realized it wasn't in my normal shooting conditions(HOT, HUMID, 300'ASL). Would appreciate any info & yes I have loads of loading books but I HATE starting from the suggested start to working up.

IMR 4064 isn't a powder I use a lot of but I did do a load workup with the 185 Juggernaut using it in my 5R Milspec. Got good results right at the 41 gr mark using Win Brass and Wolf Primers. <.5 moa at 300 yards which was the longest range I had available to me. Wasn't able to chronograph yet but am estimating that I'm in the 2500 fps range. Didn't see any pressure signs and according to all the data I've read, the max load should be up around 43 gr.

I loaded to "Magazine" length of 2.800" as that's pretty much where my rifle strangely enough does best.

Thank You, Amlevin !! Exactly what I am looking for !

Try out some Varget with those 185's. You'll like what you see.

2.800 really pushes that bullet down into the case. The pressure ring of the bullet is way below the neck shoulder junction. Single load a few with a .010 to .015 jump to the lands and see them shoot better.

If you are going to shoot tactical and magazine load, the 175 SMK's are a better choice to 800 yards.

Enjoy.

I ran the 185 BT w/ N150 in my F/TR gun for 2 seasons and it did really well.
Velocity was 2725, w/ lapua brass and CCI br-2's. Granted COAL was 2.950 ish.

I played with some 185VLDs and 48.0 of 2000MR and the performance was great. MV was right at 2900 fps in .308 with a 30" Krieger

What was round count before you noticed acuracy dropping and swapping out barrel, 2,900fps with 185g is fast.

still got the barrel 5500 rounds and going strong.
