    GRT is a great program and with luck the new version will be out in a few months.
    I've used it, but really just to confirm against ADI data.
    Could be usefull for old cartridges to I guess.

    The average joker simply doesn't need it IMHO.
    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    A bit more bang is better.

    I run 44.5Gr 2208 and Nosler Ballistic tip 165Gr in my 22" Mauser, haven't chronographed them yet but they are accurate and that's what matters
    Happy Jack.

    Use the Hornady overall length, you'll be fine.

    Also Adi website has pistol data for 308 win, 2206h and a 150 grain NBT which is pretty close to SST. Check it out.
