[QUOTE="Mike D Texas, post: 2526907, member: 71221"] Anyone shoot heavy bullets in a .308? I’m not talking about shooting 800 yards but for say 400 yards and in. If so how does it shoot and how is terminal performance on game? I have a R700 5R Milspec 20” .308 with a 1-11.125 twist and am thinking of loading up some 205 Elite Hunters. It currently shoots 175 VLDs into 1/2” groups at 2800fps. I have an M5 DBM on it so I can seat out to 2.950. This rifle has so much free bore that I am still about .050” from the lands. [/QUOTE]
