If you are intending to shoot F standard you cant use RE15, the only legal powders are 2206h and 2208.

Welcome to the narrow world of the NRAA Standard Shooting Rules (SSR's)

Keep in mind im pretty sure now that match rifle have introduced f/tr into thier rules that you may be able to use re15, any projectiles etc if f/tr is under the same platform as the us, england etc. You may wish to look into this if you would like to play around more. F standard is alot like nascar, its designed to create a level playing field for competitors. F open alows alot more freedom with ammo and rifles.
cheers

Dont worry, a well tuned 308 is as good as any F Open gun under milder conditions, you can load what ever bullets you want in it and shoot in F Open.
What twist is your barrel? You might be able to load some heavy bullets in it (or crank the 155s right up) for F TR at Match Rifleshoots at 1000,1100 and 1200yds as he said.
