    Anyone shooting 178 AMAX in their 308/what powder ?


    Got my heavy barrel Axis 308 today, going to play around with it until my 260 barrel comes in . What powder are you using with the 178 Amax ,any one using CFE223 ? I do have Varget-H4895-IMR4831-IMR3031-and lots of CFE223.

    Like that 4064 with the 15/178 class bullet. I use 43.8 but I'm using Palma brass.

    CFE & 748 work great for me
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.
