    @MSL barrel length ?

    H335 is supposed to be the go to for short barrel light fast 308

    I use w748 with magnum primers
    But can't get that speed and H335 wasn't available when i fid the load work years ago
    So have stuck with that and shot a lot of deer with it

    I use 2208 in my 308s, 2206h may have an edge in short barrels

    I'll grab some next week and give it a burn.
    will try with 125gn accubonds and Hornandy 130gn soft points
    would be great if I can get the 130gn soft points going as good (accuracy wise) as I currently have the accubonds as they are half the price, hopefully at a little more pace

    If it is the interloc they usually shoot well.
