[QUOTE="COBigJohn, post: 2434778, member: 99586"] I would like your advice on ammo for the .308 I am picking up tomorrow. A Ruger American Hunter will be in my hands before noon tomorrow. I have a Vortex 6-24x scope that will be mounted on the rail. The purpose of this gun is 2-fold... #1. Range shooting steels out to 1k yards. #2. Prairie Dog fun..... 200-500 yards. I want a single load that will do it all, which means (probably)... I need the best for 1k with a .308. I understand that different guns will play different with various ammo... But I want advice, as I don't want to blow a ton of dough on experiments that won't pan out. Should I go straight to a 175gr HPBT? I hear a lot of folks talking about the 168's. ...... [/QUOTE]
