[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 627326, member: 41442"] I shoot alot of 414 but in the 308 as i dont own a 708 but it should work fine. I use it mostly because it meters so well and alot of my 308 ammo is loaded progessively for the black guns. Its burning rate is real close to 4350 which ought to be about ideal for what your doing. One thing ill add though is it can be a bit tough to light off well. I usually dont use mag primers other then when loading mag cartidges but in the case of 414 it may pay you to experiment with them. Some loads ive have do do better with mag primers. Keep in mind too that its a bit on the slow side for that work and youll about surely be using a full case of powder and be seating a bullet on a compressed charge. My 308 load with a 150 comes right up to the top of the case [/QUOTE]
