.308W loads

[Machinexl]

I shoot 168gr amax with 42gr of reloader 15. Really good for medium range work. I tried it at 1000 and baely got it on the black!

My new load is 155gr smk with 44gr reloader 15. 1000yd test in feb.

Thats with a 26" 1-12 twist remi 700

all depends on what your rifle likes Nick, Scotts scaffold pipe shows pressure signs with much above 43 grns N140 behind a 2155, my 20" barrel swallows 45Grns easily and looks like 46grns isn't going to be a problem, his load spits out at almost 3000, mine 26-2700, go figure! if you aren't worried about F class at 1000, then 2155's work great at 300,600 and will hold the target at 1000, even at slower speeds, you just won't win any long range comps against 260's 6.5's etc. 175 SMK's could be a goer, Danny is your man for getting the most out of .308

44 Grains of N140 With 155 Lapua Scenars or 155 Palma Match , the Scenars are a faster bullet.

My pet load for .308 was 44.5GN of N140 behind a 155 scenar.
For the past year or so I haven't bothered reloading as 155 grain NRA issued GGG ammunition shoots on a par with my reloads and price wise doesnt cost me a great deal more than reloading.

Thanks everyone.
Stu, is the ggg available from the range office? Rifle is an AI AT so expecting good things from it

[DUFF EYED DOYLE]

Available in the range office not sure on exact price but it's a few quid short of £90 for 100.
Shoots well in my AX.

My scaffold pipe load is 43.5 gr under a 2155 shoots well enough for me

+1 on 44.5grn of N140 behind a 155 SMK (2155 or 2156) or Lapua bullet head. Use this in a few rifles, (I always full length size cases)

20inch Remington 700 gives 2666fps

26inch Remington 700 gives 2780fps

30inch Barnard P action with true flite barrel gives 2950fps

This isn't really a hot load and would probably be fine in your AI AT but ALWAYS start lower say 42.5grn and work up.

I haven't shot any GGG ammo but might pick some up to try.

Good luck and please post pics of how you get on.
