Another great video. Surprised at the results. Figured that 168 grain would take the cake. As you said, every gun is different. Thanks again for the info
I have a b-14 pro in 308 and it likes the hornady American whitetail in 150 grain. Tried many different rounds and those rounds impressed me. Just glad it likes the cheaper stuff so much.
My B14 HMR in .308 does pretty well with the 165gr tipped core lokts under 1 MOA consistently. Really surprised me. It will group 1/2 MOA with 168gr Berger hybrid hunter and 168/175gr gold medal match every day of the week. Fantastic rifles!
Very interesting! It leads me to believe the twist rate of this barrel is not quite stabilizing those heavier bullets. I'm sure it's advertised as 1 in 10.
Great test! Good results. You WTW & fellow hunters/shooters I have rarely been disappointed with Remington Core-Lokt in many calibers for over 30 years. Three different 7mm Remington Magnum rifles, 308(s), 30/06, 243, 223s have all grouped well or even fantastic. I have loaded many hundreds of various powders and charges in my 7 mags that have consistently given moa to submoa groups. For a basic flat based low BC bullet I have been pleased. Not great at much outside of 300 yards though. Thank you.
My remington 700 1 in 10 twist loves the old school remington 150 gr core loct bullets. Havnt found a factory load it shoots better. Awesome content who t who keep up the good work
I saw something similar with my Bergara. (The exact same one you have) 150 grain were typically the best and groups opened up more with the higher grain weights. My best group has been .43 with the 150gr barnes ttsx so far. Love the videos👍🏻
My 270 savage loves the 150 grain sp old school core lokt I got 14 dif kinds of ammo to test I was sure the cheap corelockt would be the worst but I shot 3 3 shot groups with it all under half inch. The sierra game king was second best at half inch. I had everything from 22$ box corelokt to 60$ a box sierra
The fact that your rifle shoots 150gr green and yellow box Remington is absolutely fantastic. That makes it an absolute winner. Usually it takes a lot of handloading and load workups to get that kind of performance. You've saved yourself a pile of money and time.
You know it’s funny I was rooting for the regular 150 Grain Core-Lokt soft point, the OG and it ended up being the best one. That just made my day. That makes for the hard work WTW appreciate it so much. Love ya brother and your AWESOME videos.
308 long ranger.... I used 4 or 5 different 150s i was getting worried. I used one 165 load. It was on point . Im happy with that. I wanted 165 anyway I just couldn't find any why on ammo hunt. Ran across the 165 at a later date
Got this exact rifle. Thanks for the experiment. Let me edit this…my rifle is NOT the Carbon model. But my results were similar to yours. I took your suggestion and tested five different hunting rounds and bullet weights from Federal, Norma, Hornady and Remington. I got two holes touching at 100 yards with old school Remington Core-Lokt 150’s. My best groupings of the five.
That can coming loose will definitely change point of impact and group size and it may shoot worse or better with the can removed? Anything touching the barrel can change its harmonics!
You're spot on about the ammo selection WTW. When I sighted my dad's 300WM in, we were shooting some 180 grain Norma and it was hovering around 1.5" @100. Tried some cheap Federal blue box 180 grain and it shrunk down to .75" @100. Then we both bought a Stevens model 200 in 270, mine liked the 130 grain Winchester psp loads with great groups, my dad's was the opposite. His preferred the Remington 150 grain Corelokt 's. No different than my 243, it hates the varmint stuff, can't group that ammo for nothing, anything under 90 grains the groups are horrendous, but I tried some Hornady ELD 95 grain and it was just over an inch. Later I found some Federal Fusion 95 grain and it was just under an inch. Federal blue box 100 grain gets me right around an inch, sometimes just under or just over. Tried PPU 90 and 100 grain loads, both would give me right around 1.5-2" groups. I just stuck with federal blue box loads ever since because it was inexpensive and easy to find, back then, not so much now but luckily I bought a lot of it before the ammo crunch hit us.
90% of the ammo you use and the singers you use I have never shot and probably never will. But I love watching your videos! Thanks for being a stand up honest guy! Keep the videos coming!
I had similar results with by B-14 wilderness ridge 18in .308. But I only test with hunting ammo. I don't care if it shoots 1/4 MOA with match/target ammo, since I would never take an animal with it. Every popgun I got must shoot ammo for it's intended purpose. Great video! Also, having a rifle the shoots the cheapest most prolific ammo around under 1MOA is a blessing as well.
I'm thinking some bores prefer flat base bullets. Also has anyone notated that when changing ammo one shot is need to acclimate the barrel to the new bullet?
I just shot my Ruger American hunter 308 for the first time last weekend. I’m not a great shot and got a 1.5” group at 150 yards with sierra gold medal 168 gr. I’ll try the 150 gr next. Thanks for your great videos.
Need to test out that new Copper ammo from remington. There are areas where I hunt that are lead free. I have a hard time finding quality lead ammo that isn't crazy expensive.
Great to see how much work you put in to see what the blue light slinger enjoys. Looking at the B-14 now. Not sure Santa will put it on sale though....... Ha ha
Both my Ruger American .308 and my Marlin XL7 30-06 prefer the 150grain bullets. The Ruger loves the cheap Federal Power-Shok while the Marlin does insane grouping of Herter's (Cabelas Branded Winchester Super-X). I plan on reloading some 150 grain Barnes TTSX and trying them out and may test some other 150 grain bullets that I haven't. I have a Winchester XPR in 30-06 that I am still looking for the sweet spot. Will try 165/180 in that but betting 150s will be the preferred flavor there as well. Great content! Keep it coming!
Hi Adam, I have just tested this same rifle, here the results: Federal 150gr Ballistic Tip >2,5 MOA Norma 170 gr Tip Strike 1,33 MOA Norma 180 gr Plastic Point 0,89 MO 1 MOA = 29 mm at 100 meters All shooting from solid rest, at 100 meters with muzzle brake. Silencers are forbidden in Spain. I will continue doing more testing with factory loads available here. Best regards and keep on the good work.
I bought a Sako heavy barreled target rifle a few years back in .308 win. For sighting it in I only had a old box of Remington 150 gr core lok ammo. I wasn’t expecting much but after shooting 5 rounds I went down to the 100 yard target and all 5 went in same hole.
Great video. If you can find the old Remington Core Lock. Pick it up. Have used it for over 40 years. Great ammo .just hard to find it..... Great information. Thanks
hello! thanks for this video. All time my best groups with bergara 20" 1/12 have been with 150 and 180 core lokt psp .308win. I think that would be interested a video of 180 vs 150 core lokt psp. 🙏🙏 Thanks for all yours videos.
Ol 150 Norma shot .60” from my fn spr 24” 1:12….my dd5v3 1:10 will shoot anything decent but fn will do a few super tight…I made me a homemade cheekpad like marine m40s usin black duct tape…scopes low as can get and I love the feel it has…
Awesome test and selection process, complete with things that can throw you off. I was surprised the 150’s did so well, but that was the whole reason for your test! My son is interested in the Bergara 14 (.308), so I sent him this video. You may have a new subscriber soon 👍
Epic video as usual Adam and great to see the OG core lokt winning out. Bergara make some epic rifles! Handled this one myself at the Stalking Show this past weekend here in the UK the folks from Bergara were awesome and I even scored a free T shirt from them. Definitely on my list when I next buy a rifle. 👍🏻
All are within the deer kill zone. I've used several out of my Browning AB3. It shoots my cheapo Herters 150 and 180 gr fine. Also shot some of my Berger Hybrid with similar results. The Berger is what I hunt with BC of the harder hitting load. I've collected whatever was on sale as all will drop deer. I hunt with the good stuff that can best knock down an elk if I see one where I'm allowed to shoot it. All ammo I've tried did fine. I may check zero with the Berger this year but don't want to use much of the expensive big game loads as I bought them before they were too expensive.
My Bergara HMR PRO 308 loves Federal Premium 150 gr Nosler Partitions. My Tikka T3X 308 prefers the old school 180 gr Remington Core-Lokt. You just never know.
Where are you buying ammo? Walmart? The hardware store? I’m with you. Me too a lot of time. For hunting? 75 to 100 yards? It makes sense. And it make sense as a channel. Most people just grab whatever.
Love 308 used to have a Remington that loved 150 grain Federal that would almost shoot in the same hole every time also shot the Remington's good slightly bigger groups but only by a hair military and NATO originally if I believe correct was 150-point 5 grain bullet 7.62 by 51
Really awesome groups from the core-lokt. The core-lokt tipped rounds were in line but had vertical stringing so could’ve been slightly inconsistent velocities. If not for that it looks like they all would’ve been in the same hole.
Would like to see same idea but with various other brands of rounds in popular weights. Would also like similar comparison between various rests and bipod maybe even free hand 👀 keep up great content!
Good one WTW, Hate I miss the chat but picked the winner they are hard to beat in most guns. I think most 308's are 1:10 but new Winchesters mod 70 is 1:12 need to try some 180's and see how they work 165 and 168 works good but I still like the old Remington C-L they do great on game 👍🏻
I tend to think that the shorter 20 inch barrel rage for 308 is the problem, you don't get quite the velocity for the heavy for load projectiles to get those rpms high enough to stabilize, i think 18 to 20 inch 308 is destined for 150 to 155 gr on most rifles
That old school Core -loc is a pretty good all around Bullet, I own 2 Remington pumps 308 n 06 n mine shoots the 180 pretty decent, took a lot of PA DEER WITH BUT RIFLES !! Most under 100yds
I love the work you do and value your opinion , I got a new rifle today ( it was between 2 don’t think I could go wrong with either , I liked some features on one and some features on the other, but ultimately chose one over the other ) the part where I value your opinion is B14 or Tikka T3x light in .308 , thank you for your hard work
I honestly have zero experience with the Tikka. I have some experience with the b14 and thought it did well. I have many people requesting I get a tikka
@@WHOTEEWHO well I went with the b14 I like the trigger better and it’s a little heavier ( not that .308 is bad ) but the action on the tikka was butter, can’t wait to go hunting with my uncle this year, he had to cancel last year , now I need some core lokt, I’m addicted to that stuff, even named my daughter Remington
Nice shooting that's why I love my B14's but on average my shoot everything I've tried under a inch but Hornady superformence 129gr SST is the best out of my creed I've had several 1/4 groups at 100 yards with it not everytime it's about half the time but I'm not complaining
I wonder how consistent the charge was on that lot if core lokt tipped? Could be inconsistent speeds or maybe the carbon barrel stringing issue.. although after 3 bullets from a cold bore I seriously doubt that one
Great video! You need Remington sponsorships I think. It would be interesting to do a head to head with a carbon barrel rifle and a steel barrel rifle of the same make. I do wonder at the consistency between the two, if the steel is more ammo friendly then the carbon, or if there’s no real difference.
Interesting results. Let me start by saying thank you for offering something other than another 6.5 Creedmoor video. 😂😂😂 Have you played without the can? I know that the POI will change but curious as to how much. I’m thinking that the shape/ length of the bullets have more to do with the accuracy than the weight. I got unexpected results with my 30-06 using 125 grain SST custom Lites. 3 holes touching @ 100. 1/10 twist, 24 inch barrel. Before that I was using from 150-168 grain bullets that were pretty good but not as good as the 125. Go figure 😅 Keep ‘em coming 👍🏼
Once that rifle gets around 200 rounds in it I expect it will shoot better and have a higher velocity than it does now and I think where it's just a short barrel may have a influence on why it looks the 150's the good thing about 308's is the ammo isn't as high as other calibers and is more plentiful
Yessir. I was doing some reading before purchasing my bergara in .308. All the Internet people pretty much agreed that I should look for bullets around 155 grain weight for the best accurate loads

For hunting deer, what is the WORST acceptable spread, hunting at 20 to 120 yards? And a Test with another Brand? Like Winchester or S&B or ??

People tell me that every day now. Quite a shame
Have a Henry Long Ranger that liked the standard Cor-Lokt in both 180 and 150 over any of the pointy stuff with boattails.

Love 308 used to have a Remington that loved 150 grain Federal that would almost shoot in the same hole every time also shot the Remington's good slightly bigger groups but only by a hair military and NATO originally if I believe correct was 150-point 5 grain bullet 7.62 by 51

Try some hornady American whitetail 150 and 165 grain if u can find it mine loves it.
I’d be curious to see this test redone with the rifle in the lead sled. That bipod on stacked boards isn’t all that stable looking.
Hornady tap 110gr in my Bergara .308 sporter 5 shot .5 grouping at 100 metres or near 110yards
Good one WTW, Hate I miss the chat but picked the winner they are hard to beat in most guns.
I think most 308's are 1:10 but new Winchesters mod 70 is 1:12 need to try some 180's
and see how they work 165 and 168 works good but I still like the old Remington C-L they do great on game 👍🏻
As usual you make the best shooting videos. Best of all you don't waste time jabbering or loading magazines.
I tend to think that the shorter 20 inch barrel rage for 308 is the problem, you don't get quite the velocity for the heavy for load projectiles to get those rpms high enough to stabilize, i think 18 to 20 inch 308 is destined for 150 to 155 gr on most rifles
Keep going down with the load to see if it gets better than the core locks ( lighter grains) would love to see it
Some good shooting and testing 👌grate stuff
I wish they had a 223 version of this rifle. I can only reload SRP these days. Thanks for the video!
That old school Core -loc is a pretty good all around Bullet, I own 2 Remington pumps 308 n 06 n mine shoots the 180 pretty decent, took a lot of PA DEER WITH BUT RIFLES !! Most under 100yds
I have always got my best groups with 149 grain or 150 grain bullets.

Nice shooting that's why I love my B14's but on average my shoot everything I've tried under a inch but Hornady superformence 129gr SST is the best out of my creed I've had several 1/4 groups at 100 yards with it not everytime it's about half the time but I'm not complaining
Great test. Glad I have a lot of the Core Lock 150.
Thanks for watching John
I wonder how consistent the charge was on that lot if core lokt tipped? Could be inconsistent speeds or maybe the carbon barrel stringing issue.. although after 3 bullets from a cold bore I seriously doubt that one
Great video and ammo testing content! How long did it take for the barrel to completely cool down in between shooting your groups?
That's why ya gotta try a bunch of brands weights ect. Good stuff
So it’s a Remington ammo test 😂. Love the sub MOA steel case comment.
Great show and thanks for the info 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for watching Sam
Would love to see you try some Berger factory ammo.
Done some in the past
Should've tested the first rounds again. Your groups were getting better and better as you shot. Meaning the barrel could've been getting fouled.
You need to take up hand loading ! You groups will get smaller and you will enjoy it even more .
Great video! You need Remington sponsorships I think.
It would be interesting to do a head to head with a carbon barrel rifle and a steel barrel rifle of the same make. I do wonder at the consistency between the two, if the steel is more ammo friendly then the carbon, or if there’s no real difference.
I am a Remington ambassador :)
Big fan of their stuff
Interesting results.
Let me start by saying thank you for offering something other than another 6.5 Creedmoor video. 😂😂😂
Have you played without the can? I know that the POI will change but curious as to how much.
I’m thinking that the shape/ length of the bullets have more to do with the accuracy than the weight. I got unexpected results with my 30-06 using 125 grain SST custom Lites. 3 holes touching @ 100. 1/10 twist, 24 inch barrel. Before that I was using from 150-168 grain bullets that were pretty good but not as good as the 125. Go figure 😅
Keep ‘em coming 👍🏼
Great video..
Core Lokt tipped 150 gr 👍 👌 superb 👌 group 👌 mean velocity for those monster whitetail bucks this coming Fall Rut.
👍👍
Great review as always 👏 👍 👌
Cool info
What happened to your lead slead? I thought you liked it.
Once that rifle gets around 200 rounds in it I expect it will shoot better and have a higher velocity than it does now and I think where it's just a short barrel may have a influence on why it looks the 150's the good thing about 308's is the ammo isn't as high as other calibers and is more plentiful
Yessir. I was doing some reading before purchasing my bergara in .308. All the Internet people pretty much agreed that I should look for bullets around 155 grain weight for the best accurate loads
Interesting enough, I’ve got a B14 Ridge Special Purpose heading to my dealer, 18” 6.5cm
Awesome
@@WHOTEEWHO came in today :D
My favorite rifle caliber 😎
You’re prob my fav gun channel on RUclips!
