    I'm working my 168 gn z max loads now and will be sending them from a howa 1500 with the axiom stock. Using varget, lapau brass, five shot string. starting charge @42.0 up to 43.5 in. 2 tenth increments, which would be 5% below max. I'll be watching for
    Pressure signs, but should be good. Anyone else used varget or a howa. 308. Next will be 4064.
