    168gr Amax, 44-46gr (find your node) of AR2208, Federal match primers. Done
    Will kill anything in NZ out to 500 and beyond.

    Hi, I`m a Jaffa to out west, loading .308, 3030, and 45-70 guv, so if you need a hand into reloading and a look at what gear you don`t need I can give you a heads up on it. You will definitely need a good reloading manual and a good powder scale. Take care, but have fun.
