[QUOTE="rustyshackleford, post: 2435361, member: 59526"] If you’re buying factory look for loadings with modern bullets. I love Sierra but their 168 and 175 SMK would be my last choices. Look at hornady 168 ELD or 178 BTHP, 168/175/185 berger, 168/175 Sierra TMK. Your gun is bound to like at least one of those and they are offered in factory loadings. You might even get lucky and your rifle like superformance loadings from hornady. The 308 will do what you ask but you need to be more diligent in your bullet selection. If you want a realistic idea go run some numbers in JBM trajectory simplified. [/QUOTE]
