I just got a couple hundred of Nosler's 168 grain, 308, bullets. I normally shoot varget, but the local shop has been out for months and I got tired of waiting. I bought Re-15 and have never shot with it before. Anyone have a starting load data for the round? I wasn't able to find anything with RE-15.
Using BH or Federal brass with Fed 210M primers. Thanks

Ok forgot I found this.. does this look right?from my nosler book 6th edition, * is most accurate load tested
308 Win 168gr bullet, fed. 210M primer, nosler case, 24" 1-10 lilja barrel
