Looking for Varget

Featured Replies

Hey guys...

 

If any of you in South/Central Jersey run across a shop that still has Varget in stock, could you please give me a heads up?

 

 

I'd like to pick up another pound or three.

 

 

 

Or, if any of you have a can you'd be willing to trade for a can of IMR4350, that would be awesome too.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

If I come across some ill let you know, if you see any RL 15 please let me know.

i just saw some 15 at xring in de and bought one since i cant find any blc2...lol

I think I saw some R15 at the LGS in Marcus Hook. I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

 

 

Here's why I want some more Varget. :D

That's right...I'll be at CJRPC Sunday anyway....what are his Sunday hours again?

 

Like 1-4?

 

 

 

I'm also willing to shell out for an 8lb jug of it.

 

 

Apparently there was some kind of issue with manufacturing....I've had 2 stores tell me they can't get it right now because of it.

One of my fellow high power shooters told us last week he had spoken to someone at Hodgdon HQ recently and was told they are only packaging Varget in one pound jugs at this point, both to maximize profit and to spread it out better among the competitive shooters who need it.

 

I'm sure glad I've got this season covered with pre-panic inventory!

Thats why I like Varget too. I have gotten CFE223 to just as tight a group with a little load tweaking. I actually got the best group ever with it today. about 1" at 100yards with iron sights and a 69gn Sierra MatchKing. CFE223 seems to be more available rite now.

My results are with a .223, I am not sure what caliber you are loading.

I can't say I've ever heard of it. I'll keep my eye open for some. I'm reloading for a 7mm-08.

 

 

1" with open sights? You're a hell of a shot!

I dont know if its a suitable powder for 7-08 or not. According to load data on hodgdon website there are a few loads for it. It is pretty dam good in 223 though.

 

Just over an inch i measured 1.12 with a caliper. I cant claim Im that good all the time. I was shooting off a bag on a perfect no wind no glare day with a super accurate NM AR and some of my finest home rolled loads. It was just a good day!
