Load data in caliber .300 Blaser Mag. with .308 | 181gr | Brenneke TUG bullet and 76 powders. The key underlying parameters are shown in the table above. The recommended powders for this cartridge and bullet combination are Norma MRP, Vihtavuori N560 and ADI AR 2213.

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 76 powders for .300 Blaser Mag. loaded with the .308 | 181gr | Brenneke TUG. Winchester StaBALL HD delivers the highest muzzle velocity at 3,077 fps; across all powders the maximum-charge window runs from 1,814 fps to 3,077 fps. ADI AR 2225 gives the best case fill at 100 %, and 76 of the 76 powders fall inside the usable 80–100 % fill window.

Relative to the caliber's maximum pressure (420 MPa), the top charges use 60–90 %, leaving at least 10 % headroom. The 181.0 gr projectile in 0.308" calls for a 1:13.5 twist; slower twists will usually not stabilise this weight. ADI AR 2225, Alliant Reloder-25, Bofors RP15 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. Norma MRP, Vihtavuori N560, ADI AR 2213 rank at the top here: for .300 Blaser Mag. with the .308 | 181gr | Brenneke TUG they combine a high case fill with complete burn and sit in the upper velocity band. Always begin at the start load and work up in small increments while checking case and primer for pressure signs.
