Just an added comment on my pet 165 gr. .308 load. It has proven tobe safe regarding pressure in three Ruger RSI rifles. a Remington 660 and a Winchester M70.
However, yesterday afternoon, I loaded up a box and went to the range with a new custom Mauser in .308 and while there was no problems other than very flat primers. I do believe that the load is too hot for that particular rifle. That was a rude surprise as the load has always been rather mild in the other rifles.
Therefore, I will amend my comments on the load to add start about two grains of powder lower and work up.
