There are sources on the net..or in Shotgun News for bullets for the
308. The pulled 148gr slugs are often a decent deal..and Accurate Arms
makes powder that works fine in the case..and cost about 25-50% less
than other brands.

Man, I got a lot to learn. I've already ordered some once used brass and 150
grain FMJ bullets. I see four powders offerred for 308
(2230,2460,2495,2520). Too much info for a clueless newbie, but I'd like to
reload .223 also with the same powder. Keep in mind I have no intention of
competing in shooting matches, just want quality servicable ammunition.
Would you go with 2520???

Or maybe 2460???

I didn't see prices. Should i just price compare?

I've not loaded for .308 but AA2460 has delivered best performance by
a significant margin for both Fitch and I in our .223's.

AA2460 is a ball powder that should meter very consistently in your
550.
