6mm AR turbo 40, 6mm fat rat, 6mm grinch
#21
I am seeing some temp sensitivity. I did some load development at 50F and there was a really nice node at 30.5gr of LVR. I did some more testing at 75F and the node moved to 30.4gr. I decided to go with 30.3 gr. That's on the low edge of the accuracy node at 75F and gives me some breathing room. I also keep my loads out of the sun until I am ready to use them.

Sorry about hijacking this thread.

I couldn't get the velocity nor accuracy with 8208. Switched to Varget and achieved excellent accuracy and 2750 fps with Sierra 107's. This is with a 20" barrel.

LoL that is my load too! 30.3grs of Leverevolution over a 130gr Hornady ELD Match. I get 2560fps out of my 24in AR. Where I live it matches the BDC reticle of a Bushnell 4.5-18 223 Dropzone scope out to 600 yds, or Strelok Pro said so at least.

It's nice that our node is in the same spot, it may be there for everyone then. Do you know anyone else who does 30.3grs of LVR with a130gr pill?

My load is 30.6. I haven't played with the 130 ELDM or Berger in a couple of years. I'll load up some at 30.3 and revisit it next week. I'm shooting a 22" barrel so perhaps my node is different.

Some people say that there are certain loads that just shoot good from 99% of peoples guns. Maybe around 30.3grs of Leverevolution is one of them.

Around 30.3 of Leverevolution may be one of them sweet spots that shoots great from most guns.
