Default Black Tips!

I got hold of some Black Tip .308 from Mike (AFJuvat) I don't have a .308 but I do have a 300 Blackout 16" Rifle and an 8.5" SBR in Blackout as well. So I pulled some Fiocchi 150gr factory ammo I had on hand so I was working with virgin brass, loaded them up for the 168gr load using H110. The 150gr use a 16.2gr Max load so this one at 15.2 seemed right. I was able to use the Lee Factory Crimp Die but these bullets also have a crimp groove. I will try it out with bullets that don't to rule that out as my problem from the other thread.





Here is the load data. Went with the max load as I have loaded 150gr bullets with no problems with higher loads.



So now I have Green Tips, Orange Tips, Silver Tips and Black Tips. Taste the rainbow Zombies!
