dgr416Which powder.to use for 308'tracers
I am.fixing to.load a bunch of tracers .I know should have loaded them log ago but I.did not.I.Have the following powders for these 147 grain tracers .I have reloader 15,17,19,22'I also have some win 748 and a bunch of wc867 which is way too slow to ignite them .With hurricanes coming.and floods and probably no power these will be handy dandy extra insurance .I am shooting then out of 18 inch h&k 91 .

Pa.FrankI would try H-414 (Win 760) or 4895 or 4064.. I believe these were the powders they were originally loaded with. I have used H-414 in the 308 our of a Winchester M-88 with the 18.5" barrel.. It was like an old time flash bulb going off in front of your eyes.
