TRG22 in .308 - suggested loads?

#1 Post by meles meles »

Anyone out there care, with all the usual caveats, to suggest a load for a Sako TRG in .308 for use at 600 and 1000 mards?

So why the original question?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Oh and a modified P14, with milsurp ammo, presuming that both shooters are of similar capability, you don't stand a chance.
