any out there got some good load data on the 308 with 165 GMX, Interbond or Nosler AB or PT's
I got a friend who drew and elk tag in Utah and we need some good load info for his 308 win. Even some Quickload if there is any- I don't really know what powder to try, one guy wants to try R17. any quickloads for r17 and 165 GMX, IB, AB or PT's. I would stick with the Noslers if it was me but this was his thinking. thanks in advance
 
I would work with Varget or RL15. I did real well with WW cases, RL15, and 165 AB's. Speed was a touch over 2800 with the upper end charges and accuracy was excellent.

Code:
Cartridge          : .308 Win. (SAAMI)
Bullet             : .308, 165, Nosler Accubond 55602
Useable Case Capaci: 46.471 grain H2O = 3.017 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 2.800 inch = 71.12 mm
Barrel Length      : 22.0 inch = 558.8 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 62000 psi, or 427 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 110 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

89 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 90%. These powders have been skipped.

I had great luck with Varget and the 165gr. Interbond. I seated them at 2.820" OAL and used 46grs. I was getting a little over 2800fps and excellent accuracy.
