Speer 180gr Mag Tip .308

[bullet]

Taken care of, no more need for Mag Tips

Speer does not make the 180gr Mag Tip in .308 anymore. I need some. If you have any and would be willing to part with them please let me know by sending me a PM. Thank you very much, need this to continue some of my load work with my Marlin XL7 30-06. Thanks :mrgreen:

Mike, do some work on the Deep Curl man! I have been waiting to get my hands on them and man, they look like tough nuts!

I will keep my eye out for the Mag-Tips, but I haven't seen any on the places I wander too.. Give them DC's a try, you might be impressed. They have done well in a few I have tried and the price is unbeatable for how they work..

I have 15 180gr left of the Deep Curl, but finding them is as hard as find the Mag Tip at the moment. I will be trying my favorite powder and loads for 180gr with the DC bullets I have .

Gotcha, I just wanna see what they do. I wouldn't mind trying them in my 300WSM, just for kicks. I haven't really done much serious work with that rifle, so I am always looking for something to monkey with.

I would like to stuff one into the jugs though, at around 3K to see how they hold up. From everything I have seen, they hold onto alot of weight and have a broad mushroom.. Plus, I like the Speer bullets, kinda the underdog sometimes. They will never replace Nosler, but if they are accurate and priced right, make great practice/deer bullets.

Jerry, who I hunt with has loaded some for one of his other friend (Fred) who shoots the 180gr DC in a 300WSM and Fred loves it. He said no deer has gone more than 30yds on him since he has been using the DC.

Took out a couple of moose with 180 gr Mag Tips in a 308 Norma mag a few years back, they worked well. I found the worked as well as the 180 gr Speer G.S. but at a much lower price, too bad they stopped making them.

Yes, they are perfect for the 30-06 velocities,.

One of my best loads in my last 300WSM was built around the 180 grain Mag-Tip.
