NEVER EXCEED MAXIMUM LOADS
 
I've ran Varget in my 358 since the day I got it.
200's and 225's., Winchester brass and WLr primers.
The max loads listed by Hodgdon give 2400 and 2300fps respectfully in my 20" bbl BLR.
Accuracy is outstanding given the heavy cross hair 1-4x scope on the rifle. 1.25 to 1.5moa all the way to 250.
