Is anyone shooting a Winchester Heavy Varmit....

I am just taking a poll to see if anyone shoots a winchester heavy varmit in .308? If so what bullets do you get your best grouping with?

I shoot one I have converted to a target rifle (added handstop rail, D&Td for reciever sight base and turned end of barrel for front sight base - action has been piller bedded).  I also have a Cloward scope base on it and with a 12X scope it shoots 1/2 MOA with W-W Palma brass, WLR primers, 45 gr Varget and 175 gr MKs.  Shoots all other match bullets/loads into MOA or better at 200 yards.  The 175s will hold X ring at 1000 yards but alas, I do not.

I have one and have shot 168gr MK.  Best group was just over 1/3 inch @
100 yds with 5 rds.  Have shot Nosler 125 BTs and Seirra 125 TNT @ sub MOA.
