Thread: Factory loads for Bergara

Good afternoon all, this may well have been asked a thousand times but; I'm after recommendations on factory ammo for a 308 18'' suppressed Bergara. I'm thinking 150 grain to take down reds and sika out to 200yds. I just want a starting ammo as I will reload for her down the line. Something that has worked well for you guys and is readily available. I picked the rifle up today so want to get a couple of boxes through her before Xmas and start to think about some loads going forward. I use 2208 at the moment and will try and stick with that, just don't know where to start with projectiles. Many thanks in advance.

My 16" bergara single always shot 150g hornandy whitetails very well, under moa.
Reasonable price and good brass for reloading

180grn winchester plain jane jobbies for bush work...you wont be dissapointed with results and the seem to kick shooter around less than the 150s...

I tried quite a few factory loads in a Bergara .308 BA13 (shortened to 16") and found that Hornady Black 168gr was the go. 9mm and 10mm groups at 100m. Great barrels by the way - enjoy !

Was yours the 20 inch shortened or the 16.5

My bergara rem mag likes the 162g eldx with 2225 powder. Hornady factory loads also shot quite well
