The following load data is from experimentation and is unsafe...do not use this data:
300wsm 24in barrel
60g varget, 150 sierra, 3219 fps
68.1 rl17 150 barnes, 3386 fps
73g superformance, 150 ttsx, 3428 fps
69.3g superformance, 180 ttsx, 3111 fps
308 win 24in barrel
hornady superformance factory ammo 150g sst, 3002 fps
51.3 powder from above factory round reloaded in my 308 case
with 150g sierra bullet, 2863 fps (interesting in the loss of vel)
51.2g superformance powder, 150g sierra, 2574 fps
49g rl15, 150g, 2937 fps
46.5g varget, 150g, 2882 fps
48,2g varget, 150g, 2869 fps
I was amazed at the velocity of the 150sst factory round...I need to see how they group.
I was also surprised with the rl 15 and I am going to work on that load for my 308 as I have been hunting with varget.
The rl 17 and superformance both give good vel in the wsm...I also need to see which groups better. Hornady obviously does something different on the sst load to get 3000fps.
