    Favorite .308 Winchester loads.

    Load for a bunch of calibers, but fixing to get started loading for a Remington 700 varmint in .308 Winchester. Loads in general, let's try to get some good load data going. Pick your caliber and post in a new thread.Remember that it is the individuals job to make sure loads are safe in his/her guns. Thanks

    My Remington 700 tactical loves 168gr nosler custom competition hpbt with varget powder. I tore a rotator cuff before I could finish dialing it in. So my exact load isn't finished yet.

    I'm working up some 168gn z max, varget with ladder from 42.0 gn, .2 tenth increments. 2.800 oal. I'll be shooting it from a howa 1500 with the axiom stock. Anyone else played with them or the A max/ Z max. Does anyone have a howa .308 that they've worked up a load yet.
