I have a ruger American predator 308 with a 20” barrel with 1:10” twist. I want to load the 125 gr SST for a reduced recoil load.
anyone have any experience with this load? Thanks for your thoughts.

I haven’t tried that, but it should be perfect for what you are wanting to do. That bullet with a minimum load of powder, should get you about 2600fps, and I’m guessing 243ish recoil.

Somewhere around 2600 FPS is about where I want to be. I guess it it can be done with the right load. Thanks

I looked in the Hornady manual, because they usually have the lowest starting charges of all the manuals, and all of their starting charges were listed for 2600 FPS. You may get a little more or less but it should put you in the ball park.

Thank you sir. Stay Safe
