Does Anyone have a favorite load for the ELD-M 168 .308? Im shooting it in a 16" barrel with 1:10 twist. I have tried several loads with Varget between 44.0 and 45.5 and can't seem to get better than 1" groups at 100yds. And I know I get better groups with SST's and AMAX.

Mine liked 45.0 of Varget with the 168 grain amax. I would think the ELD-M would be close to that. The 162 for my 7 mag didn't care if it was Amax or ELD-M both shot the same but that's just my experience.

I did get a slightly tighter group at 44.8 of Varget. I may just go back to the AMAX again. I did change my suppressor since I shot the AMAX from this rifle so maybe that accounts for this slightly larger grouping.
