I'm thinking about starting to reload for my axis in 308. Can anyone tell me what they use for theirs?
Currently we use Varget with 150s and 165/168s. Somewhere between 44.5 and 46.0 you will find great accuracy. In the past I have used a lot of H4895 with excellent success too. Since I can't find Varget now, I plan to try Tac as soon as the weather breaks.
It has been a while since I've reloaded 308 but H414 worked well. I think the Winchester 760 is the same but if you use the ball powder,use a magnum rifle primer with it.
I have had great luck with 155's and Varget. RL15 also worked well in some 308's for me.
204, 22 K-Hornet, 222, 223, 22-250, 22-250AI, 6BR, 243, 243AI, 6-06, 6-WSM, 250-3000AI, 270, 7-08, 7RM, 30BR, 308, 30-06, 375 H&H, 444 Marlin, 450BM, 458WM
My 308 Axis had ho hum accuracy until I used 155 gr Noslers. 42gr TAC gave superb accuracy, less than 1". Very mild load, but killed 2 Whitetails with it. Noslers match bullets make an awesome deer bullet for broadside shots.
