[QUOTE="Critter Picker, post: 2437740, member: 111781"] I think that your biggest challenges will be two fold. 1. 20" barrel isn't going to help you in the 1K shooting. With a .308 you need all the FPS you can get. 2. You are going to really heat up in a PD town when it's 100° and the sun beating down on the gun and ammo. That being said I would go 200 grains or better to get the BC up there. You should get really close to your mark. The 8 twist will be your friend there ,but the wind your enemy. [/QUOTE]
