[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2291616, member: 105681"] If the rifles will shoot them accurately they will work great out of a short barreled 308. We've killed 4 mule deer and 4 elk with them. 168 grain out of a 280 AI at 2960 fps and 190 ABLR out of the 300 win mag. Again around 2920 fps. Everything has passed thru with a great tomato soup bisque wound channel. One muley was shot at 150 yds through the big elbow joint, brisket and out the other humerus bone. I figured it was gonna be bloodshot from the ears to the tail but to my surprise, minimal loss. About 4 lbs of stew meat. Out to 530 yds they have performed flawlessly, one shot kills. I feel at 308 speeds you can't go wrong. The toughest part is getting them to shoot. Don't chase the lands they like some jump. Weigh and sort. I bought Nosler seconds so maybe that's why they were up to .4 grains off in weight. For the load data I'd go with 42-43 grains and start 0.10 off. [/QUOTE]
