My Tikka T3 groups the factory Federal Terminal Ascent 175 grain sub MOA. I'm going to deduct 100 FPS off the published velocity because my Tikka has a 22" barrel. I'm probably about 2500 FPS which is on the slow side but my Hornady 4DOF app has it carrying 1100 lbs KE at 500 yards.
I have a 24" barrel Tikka T3x in 6.5 Creedmoor that might be a better fit for whitetail out to 500, but what about the 308? Anyone a fan of the 308 for shots over 300 on whitetail?
