Just picked up some to test in my VSSF. I have some CFE 223, 8208xbr and RL-10x.
Would anyone have load data they could share to get me started?

In my 204 ,I loaded IMR 8208 XBR 28.2gr COAL 2.350 for a K1V.Haven't Shot them on Varmints,but they are accurate,and last years field reports confirm the Mist factor.

I have a Rem. 700 VLS. I loaded the 32 gr. Varmageddon with BLC(2) anjd it's the most accurate load I've ever shot in it. I started at 28 gr. and worked up to 30 gr. in .5 gr. increments. At 29 gr. I shot a .169 three shot group. The biggest group was .721. The only thing I've killed with it was a big boar badger at about 200 yds. Hit him dead center in the chest and he just rolled over on his back, DRT! There was just a caliber sized hole with a red ring around it and no exit. I'm really pleased with the Varmageddon.
