Greetings,
I chronographed 44 grains of AR2208 with the 150 grain in my 20" barrel .308 a while back. It produced 2,550 fps. Book max is 47 grains. I was comparing several different powders and 44 grains of AR2206H gave 2,670 fps and IMR4064 2,650 fps. I recently chronographed 45 grains of AR2208 with the 150 grain in a 24" barrel which produced 2,760 fps.
Regards Grandpamac.
