[QUOTE="sourdough44, post: 2237206, member: 16114"] Another relatively minor issue, that all copper bullet at 175 grains is a tad long with the 308, ‘normal’ twist rates. I do think Barnes bullets are very good, if all copper, I’d consider a little lighter/shorter. Not saying the above wouldn’t work, I see Barnes recommends a 1/11” or faster twist in the 308 with that bullet. I went Elk hunting 2.5 years ago, one shot with the 165 grn gameking & the 5x5 was down. I’m a stickler with shot placement. [/QUOTE]
