[QUOTE="jasonprox700, post: 2658879, member: 7328"] If you're not shooting far, then throw the BC out the window, it won't come into play. I have a 16" suppressed 308 that I use quite a bit for hunting. I started out with the 178's and 180's. I slowly started dropping weight to pick up velocity until I got down to the 150's. Maybe it's just my observations, but the 150's out of my 308 do a better job than the 180's did. My go to load is 150 Nosler Accubond over Varget. I've probably killed 30 deer with this load. I can't say the BC's great and there are definitely better bullets for when I need to stretch its legs, but this gun was purchased for short range work, and for me, the 150's work for their intended purpose.
