[QUOTE="kraky2, post: 234144, member: 3532"] I've played with a quite a few tsx's over the years. They don't seem to be alot different than other cup and core bullets of the same wt. (not making signifcantly more or less pressure) I would start about 2.5 grains under your fav 180 loads at about .050" off the lands and go to the range with your chrono. However....I do have to say that the 180 is long and is going to eat up a ton of case capacity in that 308. I do not see any use for something that heavy in the .308. A 168/165 tsx will do anything the 180 will do and do it a bit faster and flatter. I wouldn't even hesitate to recomend a 150 tsx or nosler e-tip as being really good medicine for anything up to and including elk. [/QUOTE]
