good powder for 150gn 308

[Catpop]

Believe it or not, I have had better results with RL-15 than Varget in my old Rem. 788 Carbine with 150 grain bullets with IMR4064 running a close second. Across all three powders, they actually are very close in velocity and group size.

Rem 788, I haven’t heard that one in a long time. Brings back fond memories of the 70-80s
Thanks

Bought it new at a gunshow in 1982 for $112 and made the seller give me a box of ammo to go with it. I thought he was going to cry, but he really wanted to get rid of that gun. First new high powered rifle I ever bought. It can be scary accurate with its preferred fodder.

I think it's a keeper.
