Need 308 reduced/youth load

[summitsitter]

I'm gonna load up some reduced loads for my son and sister to shoot in a ruger compact 308. If you have any good loads let me know. Thanks, Trent

Research AA5744.... pages 34 and 35

The '03 manual lists loads for 110 Sierra HP's, Nos 125 BT's, 150 Horn SP's, 168 Sierra HPBT's, and 180 Nos BT's.

Work up and note the note about military brass.........

could also try some trail boss. I've run some light supersonic and subsonic loads in the '06 using it with really good results.
