Load data in caliber .30 Super Fl. H&H with .308 | 150gr | Swift Scirocco bullet and 28 powders. The key underlying parameters are shown in the table above. The recommended powders for this cartridge and bullet combination are Alliant Reloder-26, Winchester StaBALL HD and Somchem S365.

Important Notice: DO NOT go below Minimum Charge or above Maximum Charge. Since we have no control over the equipment and components used, any responsibility and liability for the results achieved is rejected.

Only powders/loads that match the current filter criteria are displayed: max pressure of a load ≤ 90% of max. standardized pressure, fill rate ≥ 80% and propellant combustion ≥ 95%. Use the sliders above the tables to adjust these thresholds.

Charge: Powder weight in grains. Start with the minimum load and work up carefully.

FR (Fill Rate): Case fill as a percentage. Values above 100% mean compressed loads.

MaxP / %: Maximum chamber pressure in bar and as a percentage of the standardized maximum for this caliber.

V(0): Muzzle velocity in feet per second (fps) at the standardized barrel length.

z (Powder Burn): Estimated propellant combustion percentage at bullet exit.

This overview compares 53 powders for .30 Super Fl. H&H loaded with the .308 | 150gr | Swift Scirocco. Winchester StaBALL HD delivers the highest muzzle velocity at 3,071 fps; across all powders the maximum-charge window runs from 1,965 fps to 3,071 fps. Alliant Reloder-25 gives the best case fill at 100 %, and 53 of the 53 powders fall inside the usable 80–100 % fill window.

Relative to the caliber's maximum pressure (320 MPa), the top charges use 78–90 %, leaving at least 10 % headroom. The 150.0 gr projectile in 0.308" calls for a 1:12.0 twist; slower twists will usually not stabilise this weight. Alliant Reloder-25, Hodgdon H1000, Hodgdon Retumbo reach 100 % fill or more at maximum charge, so these are compressed loads: they need a long drop tube to seat cleanly and react sensitively to the case capacity of your own brass lot. Alliant Reloder-26, Winchester StaBALL HD, Somchem S365 rank at the top here: for .30 Super Fl. H&H with the .308 | 150gr | Swift Scirocco they combine a high case fill with complete burn and sit in the upper velocity band. As outliers, ADI AR 2209, ADI AR 2213, Alliant Reloder-19 burn incompletely and react more sensitively to barrel length and temperature. Always begin at the start load and work up in small increments while checking case and primer for pressure signs.
