[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 594079, member: 1007"] You could still hit 2450-2500 with 22" of barrel using the 200SGK. As Wyo. Coyote stated, the ACCUBONDS are another good choice. Personally I still prefer the SGK in the 308 due to the softer, quicker expansion since you dont have as much starting velocity. That said, I have had great luck with the 150 ACCUBOND in my 308. My cousin shot clean through both shoulders of a good sized bull moose at 612 yards. MV was only 2820ish. Thats about as far as you will have adequete expansion in a 308 with that bullet. They have also cleanly killed dall rams and mule deer. Exit wounds have been awsome. I would not be afraid of the 150 ACCUBOND. Others may argue but it will get it done. If I anticipated close to medium ranged shots on an elk hunt, I would not feel under gunned with the 150 ACCUBOND. If I anticipated shots on the longer side, the 200SGK would be my only other choice for the 308. [/QUOTE]
