Anyone have a good load for the Barnes .338/185 gr XLC in the 338-06?

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.

Doug,Try Varget or RL 15. Varget has done the best for me at about 57gr and RL 15 at 55gr with Varget being the accuracy and Vel. winner.

My best load to date is with the 185 grain TSX and 61 grains of BL-C(2). Shot 4 rounds into .75 inch outside diameter group at 2998 fps. (Sorry I know its not the XLC, but a good load none the less).
