I need help reloading .308 Win with 200 gr Lapua Mega and N-140 trying to get the maximum energy for hunting at close range.
I have been going up until 43'5 grains of Vihtavuori N 140.( Being 41.2 the maximum load from Vihtavuori pages). However those 43.5 give no signs o.p. and good accuracy is maintained
My question is if I may go to 44 grains, or more, of N - 140 without getting risky
What is the maximum energy I can get with this bullet/ powder ? Anybody is got the experience or the software to know more accurately

Thanks!
