Blue dot is my favorite powder in my Colt and Sig 45 ACP's. In the winter, I noticed poor ignition so I reduced the charge to 8.5 and switched to magnum primers.

I have the 308 carbine. Added a black walnut monte carlo stock. Shoots as good as it looks. In the past I've owed a couple 788s in 22-250. Both were tack drivers.

Bought 1000 at HiTech for my 223 and 1000 308s from Polygunbag. Neither charged Haz Mat because their ad said, only a small percentage would light. Well worth it for plinking with a semi.

Mine is converted to 308 and did the same thing. It came with a spare extractor, works like a charm now. Bought another spare on Egay.

Thanks MT Gianni. That price is around what I figured, couldn't help being curios. Using a camera tripod for now till I get a decent one for the shooting bench.
