[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 451072, member: 20245"] What's your bbl length and twist? That seems very slow for RL-17. I used to shoot 208gr Amaxs at over 2600fps from my .308 win when they were still available. Your 190 VLD will also require manufacture rated 1800fps for expansion, so you'll still be in the 500ish yards range. I would say use some 178 hornady A-maxs, now that's a find bullet. Poly tip, thinner jacket. That will get you out to 700ish yards with a 308. [/QUOTE]
