    Powder charge .308 150gr. 2206H powder.

    This has probably been posted previously but couldn't find anything. I've finally managed to get hold of some Hornady Interlock 150gr. flat base projectiles to load in my 16" barreled Tikka T3x .308. I use 2206H powder so would like some suggested powder load range please. Starting to max would be great. This will be a bush type load to maybe 300 yards max. I currently use 125 Accubonds with great effect but thought I'd also try a heavier projectile. Thanks

    43 to 45.5 according to the ADI 2019 manual.
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Use the ADI pistol data for the .308W. the loads are the same but the velocities are for a 15 inch barrel.
