[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1333326, member: 2736"] There are lots of powders for the 308 win that work well. while match shooting with the 308 many competitors used 4064, 4895, 4320 and IMR 3031. Primers were normally large rifle primers or CCI Br2. The CCI BR 2 is a little hotter than Most other standard large rifle primers. Here is a brisance chart that shows the heat in relation to other primers. You can see that the CCI Br2 is close to the magnum primers in the heat department. [URL]http://www.handloads.com/misc/primers.asp[/URL] and another = [URL]http://www.larrywillis.com/primers.html[/URL] So you should try different powders first and then try different primers next, (change one component at a time).
