    Damn luck or what?

    If you've got good fundamentals, good dope, zero'd gun and had no wind, it was doing exactly what it should and hit where you put it. It's not voodoo until wind kicks up and your put in weird unstable positions... That's where the voodoo comes in ;) welcome to the club, it's an addicting...

    Can't decide! Which bullet!

    Your barrel twist is gonna like the 155 pushed fast or the 168. Not sure the 175 and up will stabilize correctly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What are your three favorite powders for the .308 Winchester with 168/175 grain bullets?

    Pp2000 - fastest and most accurate out of my 21" Broughton Varget - close 2nd Re15 - almost as good as varget, just a tad slower 4895 - accurate, but slower Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    H1000 vs IMR4831 powder

    Been fighting the H1000 battle myself. Check 4831, Pro 4000MR for 180 grains, they both seem to be easier to obtain. Over 180 I'd say RE22 (I'm loading 208BTHP over RE22).

    Tuning Cartridge OAL

    Tuning Cartridge OAL Same thing here as Pinecone stated. I just worked up loads on 308 with 178's and Pro2000. Did OCW test with powder charges, then took accuracy node and adjusted .010 up to lands. All decent groups under 3/4moa, but at .010 off lands I shot the best group I have ever put...

    Reloading kits?

    The Lee single stage is great. I've loaded over 1k rounds of 308 and 223 precision rifle loads in mine and still going strong. I also picked up a pro1000 progressive for 9mm and it spits pistol rounds out quickly. Reloading is a lot of fun, just take your time. Lots of good setup videos online...
