I'm new-ish to reloading and want to start loading some hunting ammo for my .308 Win. I'd like to load up some 150 grain Speer Hot Cor and 130 and 150 grain Barnes TTSX.
What powders should I be looking for? I may be going to a gun show and want to have a buy list ready if I come across a "deal".
I'll be loading in a Dillon XL 750 progressive press. I probably won't be weighing my charges as these will just be hunting loads. I'm looking for inch groups, so I'm not super picky about accuracy.
I don't hunt in a very cold climate, so cold temperature sensitivity isn't a huge concern.
Not looking to hot rod, I'm shooting for middle of the road charges. No compressed loads, that's for sure.
Will be shot out of an 18" barreled bolt gun.
Compatibility with .223 Rem. would be nice, but not if it means giving up much with my .308 loads.
