Same bullet, different powder. I can’t get any Superformance ammo to group in my rifles. Read up reviews on Midwayusa or similar. Appears to be very rifle dependent. Some people report good results. Not me though. Super Performance won't group in my 308 either but the regular SST is fine.

Not me though. Super Performance won't group in my 308 either but the regular SST is fine. Yep same deal with my 7mm08. I could shoot both Nosler and Hornady out of my Sako and the POI was dang near same hole, but when they "changed the name/box" my gun will no longer shoot them...

My Tikka and POF group sub MOA with 150gr. Sst superformance
My 2 rem 700 won’t hold 4”. Just have to shoot them to find out.
I spent several hundred dollars last year trying to find the best round for all my .308s
Ended up being 150 fusions. They grouped at least 1.5” so I standardized in all but the Tikka.
The SST is a Deer hammer if your gun will group with it. Dayum. A 308 that shoots 4" groups? I think I would take that POS and throw it in a deep lake.

They shoot at least 1" with fusions and federal premium. Dont ask he why but the superformance was terrible in 150 and 165. Got a 7 mag that wont group with them either.

I've shot the Superformance in 4 different 7mm-08 rifles and only 1 rifle liked them. It is a model 7 stainless my FIL has. My daughters 700, a Steyr I had and Ruger American did not like them

Superformance is the only ammo I've found that my Bergara 6.5CM doesn't like. I've shot at least 10 different factory loads through it and it's the only one that sucks.

The superformance SST isn't as good as the old custom SST
A mans got to know his limitations.

I wonder if the powders compressed mixed with an overcrimped case causing bullet yaw because of the two? Never messed with any .308 that wasn't at least moa with ammo it liked I'm no ballistician or rocket scientist but I've shot a round or two dozen thousands in my time.

Rarely hear anything good about accuracy with the Superformance powders. It gives good velocities, but chitty accuracy.
