Thread: 308 powders

I'm yet to find anyone that's had good results from the CFE so will be good to see what you cone up with

went out today to find a good load with a bit more speed than what i had(and to test new scope)
2206h works ok wasnt a big climb in speed
cfe 223 worked out at 2730 but still not as accurate as the 2208
so for now i will stick to the 2208 for now, have enough adjustment to get to 1180m
shot my first 300m 5 shot group today and managed just under moa off a bipod and no rear bag so happy with that

46gr ar 2208 168gr amax, remington brass and primers or WLR primers. 2830fps. 1 in 10 twist remi 700. be aware that this is a fair amount of powder and will probably be hot in most rifles. mine doesnt seem to show any marks or signs.

That's hot in my gun. 45 is as far as I can go with sendero

I run 47gr 2208 in lapua brass with the 168 and only get 2750fps 22" barrel

yea i have a 23 inch barrel. used to be 24 but I have tourette psyndrome it down when i threaded it for silencer. i will recheck velocity sometime with the f1 but thats what i have written down in the log book. might be going crazy.works so far with my drop chart out to 560m.

ill leave the spelling error and see if anyone notices. haha
