Greetings, I have had disappointing results with AR2208 in the .308 as well and have mostly used AR2206H for some years. I chronographed some comparison loads recently in a 24" barrel. AR2206H gave...

I hear you on this one, my .308win is doing this too. For some reason it's way down on velocity and I've basically checked everything mechanical with it to ensure I'm not getting sucked into porkies...

Drillings and whatever the Eurosexuals call their triple-barreled hunting rifles are an excellent way to make a very expensive rifle that is crap at everything.

Oldbloke, it depends if you are buying the gun or buying the cartridge. I happen to have got a bit hooked in Savage 99s, and now have about 11 of them. 22 Highpower 250-3000 300 Savage 303...

It's sort of up to the dealers. I know we don't really like when it happens from another outfit to GC and vice versa. H&F is the same. If we're sending them a rifle then they require MoF done....
