Rem 700 sps tactical - best loads

[smokindonuts]

I was wondering if any of you out there had any start up info for accuracy loads for the remington 700 sps tactical 20" 1:12 twist. Was just hoping to cut down on some of the testing if any of you have already done the leg work. Looking for Bullet weight/style. Powder and Load info. etc.

Thanks

I have the rem 700 sps varmint and so far my best load has been
168 gr sierra match kings
H335 powder 41.5gr

 

[stretch]

I also have the Tactical and I use 168 smk over 46 gn of varget. Start out under this at 44 and work up to 46 gn max. I use Norma cases and fed. match primers.

Good luck

I have been using 168 Sierra MatchKings, COL 2.800 with 44.5 gr. of IMR-4895 and finding it a very accurate load in my new 700 tactical. It's probably on the hotter end of the scale, though, so you might want to work up to it.
