[QUOTE="daopi, post: 344919, member: 21695"] I think any decent hunting bullet will do the job, but the problem is the distance: you can't shoot an elk at 600 yards with 308win, not enough energy. A small deer no problem. I have a savage 10FCP too, and I use Hornady 165gr SST. According to Hornady reloading manual they are appropriate for medium and large game. Have a look to these links from Berger bullets: [URL="http://www.bergerbullets.com/Cartridges/30%20Cal/308%20Win/308%20Win.html"]Berger Bullets[/URL] [URL="http://www.bergerbullets.com/Cartridges/30%20Cal/308%20Win/308%20Win%20-%20Hunting.html"].308 Winchester - Hunting Applications[/URL] Good luck!
