    Greetings again,
    You can get some decent velocities from the .308 using AR2206H. 45 grains of that powder with the 150 grain projectile chronographed 2,870 fps the other day in a 24 inch barrel. Book max is 45.5 grains. Even 44 grains chronographed 2,770 fps. In a 20 inch barrel 44 grains of AR2206H chronographed 2,675 fps. 45 grains should give around 2,725 fps even in the 20 inch. Factory loads are often less although I have not fired a factory load for decades.
    GPM.
