Hello, just purchased a Savage Pama Rifle, Would like a Starting load using IMR 4064 or Varget with a 155 Amax or Nosler only because thats the bullets & powder I have. Going to get some of the Sierra # 2155 soon. Thanks for your help.

Well, I think you got sold a bill of goods, Savage doesn't actually sell a "Pama" rifle...
Maybe that's a Palma rifle :)

MY Bad spelling sorry
I use the 155 Amax in my 308 (a 12FV) and have had terrific luck with 2.815" OAL and 45.0gr Varget lit off by a WLR primer in Neck Sized only cases using a LCD. Remember that your rifle may vary, so work up accordingly.
I am using 45gr IMR 4064 in Winchester cases and Wolf LR primers for 155 Nosler CC in my Savage FTR. Good to 800 yds. Have not tried farther yet.
Thank you all for the info, this should get me started, I'am using Lapua brass & Fed 210M for primers.Quote:
