Help with a 308

[Kenny474]

Seriously, how many people are going to keep replying to a post that is FIVE years old, and from someone who hasn't logged in since the original post?

it is funny about the age of the post, but i just learned a lot about 308 loads. just had a 700 bbl set back (new bbl) so there wasn't .150 freebore. hope to shoot 155's in it. tom.

I will agree that if people are getting much needed info, than let it keep going. Just don't keep trying to give the OP advice, as the man just isn't going to see it.

I do have a Steven's .308 that is still relatively new with only a re-cut crown and a simple bed job, but has proven it will shoot just under MOA with the right load, and seems to keep getting better as the round count goes up.
I have been doing some load work with RE15 and 180gr Nosler BT's, and it seems as though it has promise, but it has yet to really show a "sweet spot". I don't know if I am wasting my time, as I have found other loads (BL-C2 and VARGET) with the same bullet that will shoot just a hair under MOA with decent consistency.

Anybody else had luck with RE15 and 180's in the .308?
