Has anyone loaded these in the 308. I was wondering if my results was typical. I got a very ragged hole for a 5 shot group using 46grs of varget powdwer.


1 shot 1 thrill

Yes, sir ree bob! 44.8 grains of RL-15 with that bullet will put all of the shots you want to put into a 1/4 group all day long. I'm shooting bottle caps at 350 with that load. I also use it for deer. 3 years in a row, one shot kills drt! It's all I shoot in my .308

I haven't loaded any myself, but I have used them in factory ammo. They shoot WAY better then any 25$ box of ammo should. That was Superformance. I have a box of special match ammo from a friend whose agency uses Hornady Match. He swears it'll shoot even better in my gun, haven't tried it out yet.


If you think every possible niche has been filled already, thank a wildcatter!
