I am new to this forum so I sure hope I am in the right area. Fellas I purchased a FNAR recently and am quite impressed with the preformance. I was curious if ANYONE out there is handloading for the FNAR. I am very curious as to what type of powder/gr they may be using and at what type of results. I am curretly using Sierra MK HPBT, Varget, CCI BR primers, and lapua on the brass. I understand that I am going to get a pressure drop due to the nature of a semi auto HOWEVER I am very curious about the Varget. Am I possiably running to hot ? Does anyone ACTUALLY have a viable alternative and what type of grain tolerance are you using ? Thanks for lettin me ramble,...just a little confused on this one with such a lack of information out there. ohh an if you were wondering the FNAR is a semi-auto 20" barel, 1:12 twist, .308, gas opp piston driven.
