Any info on loads re powder and charge to come close woukd be welcome. Feel free to PM me if you prefer not to make public

I can chrono 3 of his last factory rounds out of his rifle which is has an 18in suppressed barrel.

I have a couple of suitable 308 powders but prefer not to waste by guessing.

I have either Winchester or Federal LRP, may so have some CCI

Thks

I run 45.5 grain 2206h and 150sst in my 16 inch tikka for 2750 fps. Think the 2206h gives better velocity and accuracy for some lads with short barrels.
