    Someone will correct me im sure but the likes of 2206h and h335 are better with the lighter pills in 308win.
    2208,W748 N140 etc are more your mid weight pro powders.
    CFE223 seems to fit wherever 2208 does (online data) and provide slight vel gains in the med weight projectils. I got a pound and some 178Gr amax to have a play with but havent got around to it yet

    FYI 47gr 2208 lapua brass fed mag primer 168gr amax getting 2750 out of 22" barrel- its warmish but not as hot as a factory fed blue box 150gr (flattened primers and sticky bolt lift in my rifle)
    "Hunting and fishing" fucking over licenced firearms owners since ages ago.

    308Win One chambering to rule them all.
