Awesome shooting man. We need an update on the rifle. What glass and load?

2700 ish If i remember right, I need to chronograph it,

Normally I dont do that, I just true my app by what I shoot in the field
 
I'm surprised you are getting that good of results that far out with the 168s. Have you thought of stepping up to the 175s at all?
 
I have been working with the Berger 168 VLD, and the SMK 155 PALMA's Still need to work with them more,

I have shot the 175 smk, but not like I am shooting now.

Just went to the gun store, all they had were 168's

They did have some 175 Bergers.
 
haha. When I first started shooting, I would have been happy to hit the hill! I have been shooting this rifle less than a year.

and In that time It has not been cleaned once. Just south of 1200 rounds down range since it has been cleaned
 
I didn't know Berger made a 168 VLD. Usually when people say 168 I just think SMK. When does that load go transonic according to your caclculator?
 
that is impossible!! you can only do that with a 338 lapua @ $20 a round using a 300 grain bullet burning 150 grains of powder lol. you did great. excellent results with that bullet. when 175's are available they should drop less
