I have not tried 8208 in the .303 yet but it is in the right burning rate range for it, Back in the day before ADI powders the top powders for the .303 were IMR 3031 and IMR 4895; 8208 falls right...

Load a few rounds like 1gr apart from low to high so that you have at least done a precautionary check and established a known safe operating range to experiment in. People ask for recipes all the...

Don't know if you'll get much advantage from the RCBS, I had the same problem with my RCBS and new Norma brass and GM210m. I changed primer and it went in smoother and the load shot better. Will use...
