I picked up 2 boxes of the 108 Thick Jacket Bullets today and decided to load a few up with 2 different seating depths and 2 different primers.

No load testing done, just went with 30.5gr of Varget and seated .015 into the lands and just kissing the lands.

All groups shot at 200M with my 6BR

Off and on quartering winds with mirage picking up now and again.

Vertical dispersion looks pretty impressive indeed. I had great success with "normal" 108's in my 6X47 Lapua, but finding them to use was another matter.
