Does anybody have any experience with CFE 223 and 167gr Scenars in a .308? Rifles are Remington 700, 26" barrel, and an AR build, 20" barrel. Got my hands on some CFE to try out in a couple calibers and can't find any data for using it with the scenars. I've been using Accurate 2495 and it's not bad, but I would like to shrink my powder collection if possible, since this will cover me for .223, 6.5 Grendel and .308 if I can find the .308 data. Thank you for any help you can give.
 
Use 168 grain data. One grain won't matter. 167 is an odd weight anyway.
You do not need bullet specific data. You will have to work up a load for each rifle though. The data is on Hodgdon's site. Use the SIE(sierra) HPBT data.
Velocities will be slightly different due to barrel lengths. Your M700 will give slightly higher velocities. The AR lower.
