I have a pound of accurate 2520 and am wondering if anyone has some load data for .308win. I have CCI large rifle and win. large rifle primers. I have a few different .30cal bullets to pick from. I will be using lake city brass too. My rifle is a savage 10fp le with a 20in barrel. The longest shooting I will be doing around here is 600yrds but a majority will be 100yrd paper punching. Any info would be great!

Yes, you can use that powder, brass and either primer. You will see some vertical spread at 600 yards.

Thanks guys!
I was wondering if anyone personally uses this powder and what kind of results they have had?

Oh ok I didn't know if you had used it personally or just knew of it.
I had originally got the powder to try in my PTR-91(hk 91 clone)but never got around to testing it. I figure I will give it a try in the savage 10fp I picked up last week.

I use 2520 primarily for my 308 (168gr and 175gr SMK) and 6.5 Grendel loads. I find that the powder performs very well. Some people claim it is too temp sensitive, and while I have not chronoed at 20º and 90º to check, accuracy has been consistent whenever I have shot, shooting out to 500 yards. I will say also, nothing works near as well in my 6.5 for 120 to 129 grain bullets.

Thanks guys I don't see it mentioned a lot on here and thought I would ask. If it doesn't do well my ptr-91 will eat it up!
