Great bullet - totally deadly on white tail. Great cartridge too! Love the 308.
Powders that have worked very well for me in the 308 with 150 grain bullets are Varget, IMR 4064, and IMR 4895. Anyone of these should work very well.
Because you have such a short length barrel, I'd start off with IMR 4895 since it's faster than the others and may burn better in that shorter length barrel but I'd be surprise if anyone of the aforementioned powders didn't work very well for you.
For primers, I've found that Federal 210 match primers work best for me.

With a 18" tube you probably want to try 3031 also.
