.308 bullet weights
After seeing the 22-250 thread it made me think we should start one for each caliber for the Tikka's. Post up a new thread with the given caliber of your choice and let the fun begin. If posting up reloading data please state where the data came from and if possible the shooting conditions when testing. Please state clearly if the loads are above SAMMI specs as we want to keep everyone safe. My T3 Varmint is a .308 (factory barrel) so I'll start with it. All the following loads are factory loads (fps given is factory info as I don't have a chrony) I was using to get fire formed brass for reloading. Once I have the reloads I'll post up as much data as possible. Each grouping was at 100 yards off of a bipod and a rear bag.
Federal Power Shok 150gr SP 2820fps: .75″-1″ 5 shot groups
Hornady TAP 168gr 2700fps: 1″-1.25″ 3 shot groups
Corbon DPX Hunter 168gr 2600fps: 1″-1.25″ 3 shot groups
Winchester Silvertip 180gr 2620fps: 1.5″-2″ 3 shot groups
