[QUOTE="RetiredSniper, post: 1720717, member: 82005"] I have been reloading 308 since the 80s. I have tested many loads with many powders and bullet weights. Also in many 308 riffles. I found the 165 and the 168 grain Boat tail spear point and hollow point to be best. For powder I had to back off from max load to get good groups. The max load will give you max velocity but not necessarily good grouping. My pet load that works in practically all 308 riffles is 165 or 168 grain boat tail hollow point over 42.0 grains of IMR 4064 with a CCI # 200 large riffle primer. Gives me 2485 F.P.S. [/QUOTE]
