    My mix is 47 grains of 2206h with a Barnes TTSX - expensive but super accurate through my 308

    I’m new to reloading and like others have said it’s addictive. I was shooting factory 150 soft points (SP) and had great success on all animals I threw them at 250m and under. Over lock down last year I started to reload mostly 9mm but had 308 dies too and just went from there. The forum was a great help. Ultimately I was chasing accuracy - the 150s were good maybe 1cm spacing ( I don’t understand MOA so I’ll use basic terms ) but the 130s were touching in groups of 3 (key holing) My tikka loves the 130s accuracy wise but the 150s just put animals on the deck better. It’s worth it in my eyes not for the $$ but for that added bonus of you made the bullet that put the deer on your table - or in my case others tables.
