[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 249668, member: 1007"] It depends on what you want to do with it. For 100-1000 yard paper the 155 SCENAR, 155 AMAX, 175 SMK, 178 AMAX or 190 SMK. For up to 600 yard deer size critters, 150, 165, 180 Ballitic tip, 150, 165, 180 ACCUBOND or 178 AMAX. For bigger critters at less range, 150-180 ACCUBONDS. VARGET is a great choice. Start there. Some rifles wont excell with it. If it doesnt then try RL15, or H4895. For 125-168 grain bullets Hodgdon BENCHMARK is phenominal. You dont get super velocities but the accuracy is astounding and is in the extreeme line of H powders. It is also too fast for heavier bullets. As a last resort try IMR 4064. It is extreemly forgiving in a 308. It just isnt quite as temp stable as RL15 or the "H" powders. [/QUOTE]
