[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 715691, member: 29890"] Honestly I feel that the best hunting bullet for the 308 is the 168grn Nosler BT, and a 308 should not be used at 800 yards for hunting. Spliting the brass in that area is from work hardening the brass by fl sizing it constantly, neck size and partially anneal (stress relieve) the necks every other firing at about 550* for 5 or 6 seconds instead of a full anneal, only fully anneal about every 5th firing and use Norma or Lapua brass and your problem will go away, if you use Lapua brass back your charge off about 6 tenths.
