So, i dont have time to reload right now with a new baby. Im now switching back to factory ammo. Below is a list of what ive narrowed it down to based on cost and effectiveness. I will not use FGMM as its never available. I may use hsm again, unsure. If theres any not listed but falls within the pricing/effectiveness let me know.
My reloads are using hornady 178gr hpbt so it makes sense to use their factory rolled but i wont discount something better and since its factory ammo its hard to say.
Fiocchi exacta 175gr
Eagle eye 175gr
Hornady match 178gr
Hornady superformance 178gr
Freedom munitions 175gr/178gr
I can get hornady for $21/box and it has the best bc of the bunch.
Fiocchi i dont remember how well it shot but its about the same price.
Eagle eye is a new comer and everyone thats using it seems to like it but its also $30/box and reviews put it on par with fiocchi and fgmm as far as accuracy and sd/es.
Freedom munitions never had what i wanted in stock so ive never been able to test it in my rifles. But theyre about $16/box which is close to what ive paid for SSA/Nosler.
I will list specs just for common knowledge but i dont expect your results to mimic mine.
18" bull barrel 1/10 twist.
