[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1214708, member: 69478"] When I did a lot of reloading for .308 when my cousins first got into long range, all I loaded for them was IMR 4064 because it was always on the shelves. Recently I have seen a lot more powder in stock at the local shops and at my closest Cabelas. There are a dozen good powders for the .308 but CFE 223 seems to make the best velocity from what I have read and heard online. Some powders that will work include IMR 4064, IMR 4166, CFE 223, Varget, H4895, and IMR 4895 give the best speeds and can be very accurate! The load I shot was 44.0 grains of IMR 4064 with a 168gr A-MAX going 2700fps. This load shot under 1/2 MOA in two factory rifles and shot a lot of ground hogs and a few deer, worked every time.
