    reloading for a spanish civil guardia mauser

    I read that I CANNOT use commercial 308 winchester ammo and load data
    so I am requesting a load recipe using Varget for a load that can be safely shot in a 1916 spanish civil guardia

    Stay with bullets of 150gr or under and load light. H4895 would be a better powder to start as its one of the few thats listed as safe to reduce below the minimum. Check Hodgdon's website, they say to find the max load and multiply by 60%. Shoot me a PM if you want to try a few ounces, I think I have some left.
