[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 790706, member: 5302"] 44 grains of IMR4064 under 168's has been a match winning record setting load for the .308 since 1964. Don't crimp cases onto those bullets, or any bullet, if best accuracy is your objective. Full length size cases but don't set the fired case shoulder back more than 2 thousandths. Tens (hundreds?) of thousands of Federal 210 primers have been fired in M1, M14, M1A rifles and their floating firing pin has never caused a slam fire. Federal primers need at least a .020" deep dimple to fire them; floating firing pins don't dimple Federal primers that deep. Unless your barrel's at least 24 inches long, 168 Sierra's will go subsonic at about 800 yards. [/QUOTE]
