Chronographing handloads in 308/7.62x51. These were loaded as follows:

CFE 223 - 168 grain Speer BTHP / 48.5 grain powder
N133 - 168 grain Speer BTHP / 39.8 grain powder
Accurate 4064 - Hornady 150 grain FMJ / 44.5 grain powder

Surprised, but at 35 yards, the Accurate 4064 was excellent. Need to test all three out to 100 and beyond, but got some good results. Of course, never "work up" a load in the cold, but hey, I was bored, so I did anyway!

Enjoy!
