Does that mean they used the superformance powder?

no it means they used a blend of powders for the caliber and projectile.

superformance powder they sell is optimized for more over bore cartridges. could still be worth a try but i haven't.

Has anyone else chrono these? They shot @ 1.5" grouping at 240yards today out of my Sako 308. Only had three left so inconclusive.

Danny, if you need a chrony I have one here you can use. Could arrange a sortie to the Tok shooting complex which is only two minutes from my place.

Thanks

Absolutely true. Send me a PM when you're over here, time etc and we'll take it from there.

I read in one of the mags that they chrony pretty close to what was stated on the pack (3000fps) Out of a Rem 700 24inch barrel they were going 2986 average. Im prob going to go to the 150sst with my Rem 308 after I use my Rem corelolts up as they group slightly better

Fast but not fast enough

My sako 08 was pushing the 165sst at 2800 with 48gr of 2208

51gr 2208 fed magnum primer fed brass 130ttsx was 3000fps out of my old mans 18'' Rossi
51.6 3180 out of my Sako......pain to load tho drop tube and trickle it in.
H335 would be much better but I have lots of 2208

Am out of 130 ttsx so for now will load and use these 150 and 160 Accubonds.

Thanks for that.
