Re: Speeding up my .308
I had a different experience. I agreed with the above post until I started using 2000mr. I had issues trying to get the 208 Amax to group, but have had recent success with the Hornady 208 HPBT & 47gr 2000mr, Win brass. It's on the warm side, but it's smack in the accuracy node, using it for winter shooting.
With 46.5gr under a 190gr Nosler CC, I'm averaging 3/4moa and getting 2730fps from a 26" 5R barrel. NO pressure signs. I am using Fed brass and on the 5th firing, still holding primers. There are other people doing this with similar results. I don't know why it works so well, it just does. I guess the only thing to do from here is to see how it affects barrel longevity
