Looking to put together some rounds for my CMMG MK3 using the following.
Hornady Match 168gr BTHP
Varget powder
Remington 9 1/2 primers
LC brass (head stamped ‘12-‘14)
Looking at Hodgdon’s website using varget/168gr BTHP they recommend a starting load charge of 42.0gr and a max of 46.0. A lot of information out there for reduction in LC brass ranging from 1.5gr to 10%.
My question is am I reducing from min or max loads? With my limited knowledge -1.5 from 42.0 feels better than 10%.
Thanks in advance.
