When I started loading I always just picked a load that would give the velocity I wanted if it didn't group I wrote it off as a no go. Thanks to this forum and my own experiences I have learned that not every rifle will like x, y, or z charge. You need to see what you gun likes.

Judd always tells me where Berger lists max charge, that's where he starts and works up from there.
I vaguely remember their listed max charge for my 7 Rem Mag was way below where the rifle started shooting. Check the books, and check Hodgdon.com as well. Get as many sources of data as you can.

Yeah their max on the 168VLD looks a hell of a lot like where you settled on the 180VLD
