If you want to use Alliant in the 308 then Reloader 15 is the one you want. For a 150gn pill you can use up to 46 grains of this stuff. It is similar to ADI 2208, but not quite. Personally I would use 2208, and load about 46.5 grains. As usual, work up to these loads carefully.

Check out the following link for all types of loads...

This talks about an OCW or Optimal Charge Weight which seems to work...
