Buffalo River (Australia) has loaded a .308 cartridge, loaded by ADI, and distributed by OSA. It throws out a 135gn Sierra HP at 3000fps!
Has anyone seen it for sale here or even tried it.
I have some Belmont 130 grain for my BSA Majestic, and was wondering how these would be?
It's a very light rifle and I prefer something under 150 grain.
I'm shooting the Belmont 130 hp in my kimber .308. They are nice and accurate
Belmont use to do 100 gn hp for .308 they were awesome on goats :thumbsup:
Where abouts are you getting them from?Quote:

Even a light 308 you shouldn't find the recoil a big factor using 150gr than 130gr.Bit different when its 180gr but 150gr is pretty tame in a 308 and mines reasonable lightQuote:

ADI AR2206H.
yip they go out like hand grenades inside the animal. Never get through and through unless a neck shot.
