I am looking for military-type ammo - 168 and 150 grains or whatever are the standard weights.
I understand that the standard 308 ammo is optimised for longer barrels - 22-24 inches, so in 16.5 inch barrel (Rem 7600P pump I am considering) it will not be efficient, as well as cause a huge flash.
Am I correct that a faster-burning powder, possibly in smaller amount, will be more efficient, produce less flash and possibly more velocity than a standard ammo?
Has anyone experimented with such recipies?
Thanks,
miko
