Bullet: Berger 80gr VLD Target
Speed: 2915fps (26” 1:8)
I was shooting 23.5 grains of Varget in both my RPA and my Sportco with 80's and 80.5's, I haven't shot them in the Musgrave yet.
Both the RPA and the Sportco are super accurate at 500 and 800 meters with those bullets shooting with the sling'n'irons however.
I haven't charged the powder yet, so I may just go with a bunch of 69 Grain Seirra Palma match bullets I have , I likely won't be shooting this rifle past 500 for a while anyway
