Favorite .308 recipe....

[Barracho]

Post your favorite recipe for .308
I’ve just purchased a new rifle and am looking for reloading recipes to try. I know there are limitless combinations but I want to see what you guys are shooting. Thanks ?

 

[MJB13SRT8]

lapua brass, CCI BR2 primers, 43 gr IMR 4064, and Sierra 175 TMK .015" off the lands.

Montrose

 

[OLD308]

Lapua brass, 210/210M, 8208XBR, 175 SMK or Scenar L, 2720 fps. Easy node.
Lapua brass, 210/210M, Benchmark, 155 SMK or Scenar L. Not a hot rod load, just a bullet stacker.

 

[Premium]

Norma brass, Fed M210 primers, 44gr Varget, 168gr TMK, .015 off lands

Varget and 308win is always a winner!

 

[Ryridesmotox]

Jagemann brass, cci primer, IMR4064, 178 eld match, average 2712 fps out of my 20 inch howa. The SD is 9 and ES is 23. I load as far as the Magpul magazine will let me.

I use 45 grains of powder, and could go a bit stouter, but the groups open a bit. That load is about .5 moa out of my gun.

 

[HogsLife]

Lapua or Lake City Brass
175gn SMK’s
44grns Varget
Federal 210 Primers

Can’t go wrong with Varget. Re-15 works just as well but a little more temp sensitive than Varget. Same Powder charge.

The trick is not to trim the brass after sizing, that changes the brass weight which we all know screws your MV SD.

Be careful with these recipes cuz powder lots vary in burning rate and some of these loads are too hot, assuming you have a fast lot.

For a 3 0 Hate I'd buy by the case and spend my time reloading on the more racy
choices.

Dude abides.

[Lapuapalooza]

172gr Amax
42.3gr Rainbow Sprinkle powder
Rushin primers
Delinked LC once fired brass

Rainbow Sprinkle powder doesn’t like to charge cause it’s extra extruded. Hand dump powder only.

It’ll load up all day if I do my part.

 

[Veer_G]

I'm imagining something like this, somewhere, some time soon.
