243 58grn v max loads and Vit 140

[Deerless]

Hi, a mate has just got himself a tub of Vit 140 and loves to shoot 58grn V Max through his 243 Sako Finlight. He has gone off Varget as it is one dirty barrel fowling powder (his description).

 

Anyone got a good load for this combination?

 

Also looking at the 69grn Berger VLD varmint?

 

Many Thanks

Paul, not exactly what you asked, but I'm using 43 grains of N140 with 60 grain Sierras and 42.5 grains with 70 grain Nosler BT's.....

Thats a start for both tips.

 

Good luck on the sale of the RPA mate, someone is in for a bargain.
