I am very interested in your/the accuracy results with Bob's Whiteout 308-200-FN-BT-200 grains slugs and the 152 grains.
And what would you choose for 150 yards target shooting?
My setup: 300 fpe with 27" LW barrel.

I don't know anyone who is shooting the 200 grain. I believe the mold for that one was not right.
I have the 176 grain mold but haven't had a chance to cast any yet. I will post back here when i finally get a chance to cast some and test them.

The 200 gr. mould was made by Veral at LBT, and indeed he didn't make it to the requested specs....

Thanks. With the websearch engine I had only found the 152 and the 200 grains Whiteout. Not the mould for the 176 grains.
I'm very curious about the test results.

The 152 gr. BBT is not called a Whiteout.... that was only the 200 gr.... NOE carry moulds for the BBT in 135, 154 and 176 gr....

Sixshooter has used the 135 gr. quite a bit with good results.... The other bullets are too long and heavy for most PCPs, you need a powerful gun with a fast twist rate to use them.... The 200 gr. was designed to be used at 4500 psi using Helium in a 8" twist.... I don't have a gun capable of using any of them....

Thanks. the 308-154-FN-BF2 would be a good start.
I better wait until AncientSword had tested the 176 grains slugs.

I'm guessing you will lose 50-60 fps with the 176 gr. compared to the 154 gr.... In a 300 FPE gun, either should work OK, provided you have a fast enough twist rate....
