Are you still using the military brass? There has been some sleuthing about the Federal 168 SMK match load, and the conclusion was it looks an awful lot like 42.8 grains of 4064 and that's in heavy brass like the military stuff. You may have hit on a very similar mark.


For this load, I'm using commercial brass(Federal and Winchester). My 700 tactical, likes LC brass, 44 gr Varget, and 150grain Game Kings.
