H 380 in a 308

[mlh29]

anyone running h380 in their 308? Looking for loads for 168-178 bullets
will be using prepped fc brass, cci primers.

Looking through my gun room and found a 8lb keg bought for the 22-250's which in the past 4 yrs or so have not been used ..

have ran it in many other calibers with good luck, just wanted to see if anyone has loads worked up using this powder.
Thanks in advance

I found some old notes from 2005. I don't remember much about using this powder, but the note says 178 a-max with 47.5 gr. H380 no MV, and 168 triple shock with 51.0 gr. at 2940 fps, which I remember, they were screamers.

my savage 10fp-le1 likes 44gr h380 pushing 178gr BTHP in hornady cases, my opal is only 2.86 and thats on the lands, .5-.75 groups constant if i do my part, i do not have a chrony but thy should be around 2350fps in a 22in tube.
