What kind of velocity to you get from that combination?

Just over 2300fps very slow round but flies great lol

So I am new to the 308 Winchester scene and picked up a Savage 110 tactical with a left handed setup 24 inch fluted heavy barrel. I was wondering if anyone had a general good load/bullet combination that would work or could send me in the right direction. Primary use would be target shooting and some varmint control.

H4895 41g with 168
40 with 178 hornady bullets
That's what my savage 308 loves

That's 2675 fps out of my gun with a 168 amax and about 100 fps slower with a 178 amax. Your eld's should be pretty close to that speed. No pressure signs, and no compressed loads. It meters pretty good also.

Try the Nosler custom competition 168gr bthp with Varget powder. So far mine has liked between 41 and 42gr. Once I'm able to shoot again I'll dial it the rest of the way in. Out of curiosity I loaded up 5 of 41 and 42gr again. Tested them at 150 yards. You could cover each group with a quarter.

I’ve only tried the 178gr ELD-X. Let us know how the 200’s work for you if you end up loading some! May have to give it a shot

I just ordered some of the 200gr eld-x hopefully I will get to do some load development width them in the next couple months. With 3 kids in football, very little time for anything. When I do get around to it, I will start a thread about the load development.
