Who is having success running the new 208 Burger bullet in cartridges like the 300 WSM or the 300 saum improved. Thanks

Can’t complain here
I’ve done pretty much no load development on this one. I shot 63,64,and 65 grains of H4350 at 100 yards at home to see where it would pressure out and it went in one big hole. Took 64 grains straight to 1k and shot the 2.2 group. Next trip was terrible mirage and it was about 6”. It shot 5” again but I forgot to save it on my phone.

Will the 208 pass or equal the 210vld in accuracy??

Wow the 208hyb bullet must be awesome, no news is good news. Maybe it's because the shortage of components and a supply chain at the moment. Who knows. Just bought a couple 1000 of them should be trying them out next week when they arrive.
