I've found blr's are Very accurate. I handload so play around to find with they like best.
Suspect you'll be happy with whatever you try.
if you find one with a good trigger good for you....factory loads should work fine but a warning on reloads because some have very tight chamber tolerances and may require special resize dies....(small base dies)....and keep the chamber clean...my 2 bitz
Mine liked a certain loading(Win 150), my buddies liked a different loading(REM 150), and another buddies shot real well with a totally different loading(Fed 165).
When we started reloading the whole Jeckle and Hyde thing was present too.
Incidentally what my rifle liked, shot like crap in my 2 buddies BLR’s. And their preferred loads both weren’t as well shooting in my BLR.
The message here is go shoot the damned rifle and find out what it likes…..
There’s no way of predicting which load a rifle likes, it has to be sleuthed out, by burning powder.
