[QUOTE="SWRhodd, post: 2815183, member: 18227"] Ok, I'm testing CFE223 in my FNH Patrol Bolt Rifle in 308 Win. with a 24" barrel. In my testing, I'm using a 168 gr. Sierra TMK, Hornady brass, Federal Lg. Rifle Match primers. So here's my question, I guess. Using 47 grs. of powder and my COAL is 2.800, I am getting velocity between 3100-3200 with no signs of excessive pressure. No flattened primers, no ruptured cases and no problems with extraction. The Hornady 9th edition lists 47.2 as max with a 168 gr. bullet with a velocity of 2700. I am just confused with this load testing. Has any worked up or tested CFE223 in 308? [/QUOTE]
