[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 728734, member: 268"] FWIW, I've loaded the Hornady 225gr BTHP in my 308. Here are the particulars, Win brass moly'd Hdy 225gr BTHP CCI 200 RL17 - 48.0gr OAL 3.08" (.008" off lands) Rem 700 Varmint barrel, 1/12 twist, 20.5" MV - 2500 fps [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/montanamarine/Loading/PC140003.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v461/montanamarine/308%20Targets/PC190003.jpg[/IMG] Elevation 4500', sub-moa at 100 and 1200 yards. Tried going to a mile, caught a few splashes but overall inconclusive results at that distance. Not sure if it was still stable or not. The advertised BC is .67-ish. My shooting results were more like .71. The 215 Berger does look like a winner, great balance of weight, BC, velocity potential. [/QUOTE]
