I finally stocked up on 165 grain Ballistic Tips a few weeks ago that will last me for years, was not able to find the 168 Ballistic Tips, its been several years since I used the 165's / 168's. It's my favorite bullet next to the 178 ELD's. I wanted to stick with the 165's, so I whipped up some charges of Varget in .3 grain increments from 44.8 to 46.0 grains, bumped .020" to fit magazine. Looks like my fast node is at 45.7 grains at 2840 fps. I would love to run this through some jugs @100.
