I have just been given 1000 Fedral 205 srp would these any good in Lapua 308 palma cases I am loading with N150 and N550 or are there better primers to use in these cases and should i just use the 205s in my 223

Laurie, Richiew, again thanks chaps, so maybe i should then keep the scenars for 600 yards max or try to get some Berger 155.5 as i belive these are supposed to be better.
Ok so also in stock I have 190 SMK 185 Berger VLD 175 SMK and some old Lapua 185 D46
Comments and suggestions on these would be appreciated

Laurie the rifle is a dolphin ftr and is throated for 155 gun bullets ,my wife's HPS I dont know how that is throated .
Another thing is I have around a 1000 Lapua scenars 155 grain on my shelf, and maybe 400 2155 SMK
so to sum up then do you think i would be better in the HPS to go with the SMK 155 ?
I will do velocities with both powders and bullets in both rifles
Hi new member here long time rifle shooter and reloader, but I have decided for many reasons to only use Lapua scenar 155 in my and my wife's 308( wife's 308 is a 1/13 twist at 30") mine is a 1/11 32 inch.
Im looking for suggested loads with N150 for 1000 yards or am I better to go with N550 I want to keep around the 3000 fps range
I know all about RS52 but the availability of it in my neck of the woods is scarce, and I have plenty of N550 and N150
Thanks
