[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 2887207, member: 8873"] We (Army Snipers) still use a 175 grain Sierra Matchking at under 2600 fps. Not the best performance from a .308, that is the kind of loads you’re thinking about. Load the best bullets with optimum powders and it is not the same, becomes a different animal. bamban’s .308 has better ballistics than our M2010 .300 Wimags did, and remember his barrel is only 18”. Now most long range hunters wouldn’t hesitate to question the capable of killing deer/elk at 600 yards with the WinMag. [/QUOTE]
