Closest box ammo to Remington Premier Match 168 SMK in 308Win?
I have a model 10 FCP-K that really really likes Remington Premier Match 168 SMK box ammo. (4" groups at 500 meters) But I can't find any and don't reload yet. I can find Federal Gold Medal Match 168 SMK but haven't shot it enough to know how close the velocity is to the Remington version. I know they vary with the lot, but I can't remember a bad lot of the Remington ammo in the short time I've been shooting it.
Is the Federal close to the Remington in velocity and OAL?
If I were going to reload 308 what powder and weight would I start with to match the Remington?
