    need a little help...small base .308 resizing...

    Hey guys...I'm a bit of a lurker here, but I need a bit of help.

    Rolling your own 308 168 gr. FGGM

    Re: Rolling your own 308 168 gr. FGGM Good point on the meplats. I definitely would second that on any factory ammo measurement as a reference. I was actually working up a 168FGMM copy for my 20" rifle on 4064 powder. I have to check my notes again, but I was up around 43.5 grains and an easy...

    Range Report FN SPR A1A to 1k yards w/FGMM

    Re: FN SPR A1A to 1k yards w/FGMM 12.9 sounds about right for your 100 yard zero...I'm about 30-50fps faster than you though, on average. I think the slowest speed I saw was about 2580fps...max about 2609.....obviously the air density is going to affect our adjustment differences a bit...
