    Powder recommendations for short barrel 308?

    Hey you'll

    I've got a 14" 308 I'm looking to reload for, and not sure what powder would best suit the shorter barrel. It's got a muzzle forward can on her, that probably takes it out to about 20". I'm thinking a slightly faster powder? Probably going to use around 150 to 160grn projectiles. It'll mainly be used for deer as a bush gun, Sometimes lighter projectiles for goats will be used too. Keen to hear your recommendations!

    Cheers.
