155gr Amax 308

Loading the 155's for both lar 8 and bolt gun. just shooting varmints.
Looking for a load that will work for both no need for speed just as accurate as possible
Thanks to all for everyone for your help, this has been fun working on loads...
 
If I were shooting a 155 grain bullet I would use 46 grains of N150, winchester brass trimed to 2.008 and a COAL of 2.83. That last time I shot that load I was getting single ragged holes from 5 schot groups out of a 12 twist 24 inch barrel off the bench. This was with a factory Howa 1500 varmint.
If you run a slightly faster powder like varget I bet your ragged hole group will be smaller than the one I shot.
