125 Hornady SST 308 data?

[Team4LongGun]

Can't find my manual.....

Anyone have the load data for this bullet?

Thank you

I have Varget, BLC-2 and 4064, hoping to use Varget

none of those are listed in Hornady's 10th edition, Sierra does list Varget & IMR4064 for their 125s, PM sent

If you're chasing velocity, you won't be able to fit enough Varget in there to make them really hum, but accuracy should be pretty good. Ramshot Tac or H4895 are what I've used to make 125's hum in a 308 (the H4895 was more accurate, the Tac would make them go stupid fast).

Try imr 4895 mine loves it

I’m getting 3000 fps from a 20” barrel with Varget and 125 grain Accubonds in my 308.

How'd you get that much in there? I had bullets pushing out from the compressed powder pressure before I topped 2900 in my 20 inch Howa SuperLite. H4895 boosted me up to a bit north of 3k, and Tac got me near 3100.

It is definitely compressed, but worked for me. I stopped at 3000 fps with TAC and 125 grain NBTs.
