Thread: 308 reloading

Clean the living shit out of it then get a sample pack of Sierra 165 Gameking hpbt, load em up 44grains 2206H at 70mm OAL measured at the metplat - if it won't shoot sell it quick! That is my datum load for testing 308 out of the box.

Love those bullets. Shot them from my first 308 and they were fantastic but not what I am looking for in this rifle. Shoots the corelokts really well and all the animals I have shot with them in this rifle have gone down spectacularly.
