Guess it just comes down to which way your dong hangs.

FWIW, '15 pushed 178s around 2740 in my 26" 308.


Yeah, shooting in -40 degree temps ain't for me, either! Truth be told, it's just one more thing to have fun arguing over. If you switched out my Varget for RL15 or that was all I could get, I wouldn't hesitate a second to use it.

That said I guess my schlong is dangling to the Varget...whichever way that is.

When I get my chrony fixed/replaced I can check my speed on the SMK's with a full load of Varget. Just going off my drops at 500 I was close to mid-2700's with a 24".

I REALLY need to get a chrony back! Want to see what the .223 is doing with the 75's and what the .308 is spittin those 155 Scenars at...


It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...

Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

Stupidity has no average...
