Blaser R8 308 . What grain

Not an R8 but my R93 .308 is a bit fussy. Tried a lot of different factory ammo first. It didn't like 123gr sako or 150gr Federal (1.5-2" groups approx). Shot superbly (single hole groups) with 150gr sst superformance but with the odd unexplained flyer. Federal Vitalshok 150gr BT were also very good but pricey. Shot geco 170 gr and 165 gr superbly, but I wanted something faster and I've settled on 150gr sst and 155gr amax hand loads and it's now (finally!) consistently excellent.

Both my R93 Match Barrels shoot Privi 168gr HPBT, Blaser CDP 165 gr and Barnes TTSX really well. All worked well on the range and in the field. And all have the same POI.
