    fella bought brand new sako in .308 salesman sold him two boxes of the 150grn superpreformance.....3 flattened primers,one blown primer out of the fourty and a lovely wee flinch developing......tried some of my hotter reloads in same rifle and absolutely NO sign of pressure...methinks they are NOT a good load to be spending good coin on...no way in hell they will be goingthrough any of my rifles.
