Reloading for .308

[Gatorade]

Matt and I have been txting and talking about this. I reload but not for .308 so I can teach him how but not the what. He has been trying to find a powder that delivers good performance for 150-180gr bullets out of a 20" Remington 700. I mentioned versitle powders like H335 if he also decides to load for .223 but I know versatility doesn't always translate to accuracy.

Also one other thing is he hasnt had a chance to shoot a lot of different ammo in the rifle yet. So a general good powder is what he is looking for. I have heard a lot about Varget for the .308. Is that a good all round .308 powder?

Like all of us trying to stock on components he just doesn't know what specific powder to stock up on. I am still trying to source a couple thousand small rife primers and some H110 here in Miami but not having much luck and too busy. I may just put another store pick up at Bass Pro to save the hazmat charge.
