[QUOTE="jonoMT, post: 186394, member: 9463"] Thanks for the load info. I was also pleasantly surprised to find an email from Speer this morning with an attached PDF showing their .308 Win loads. I wasn't sure if they would honor my request but it certainly makes me more favorable towards using their products. One reason I want to use the Speer Spitzers is that they have the same BC as Nosler BTs or Accubonds but cost 2/3 to 1/2 as much. I'd rather fire 50-100% more practice rounds of a bullet that may not be quite the same quality but may be close enough. Obviously, the particular rifle will have to "like" whatever it's fed. In this case, it's for a Rem. LTR w/a fixed 4X scope, which (and here comes the confession) I'm gearing just for MPBR hunting. That's partially because of my comfort level/experience with distance shooting, especially on an animal, and also because that rifle in .308 Win and 20" barrel doesn't strike me as a setup for hitting a bull elk at 600+ yards.
