[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2138200, member: 95344"] I started reloading with the 308 Win back in 1990 and it's a good one to start on. For target shooting and thin skinned game some use a 168 SMK. I haven't but, on reasonable broadside shots on deer it's been done and I'd try it. Or choose a Berger Hunting bullet. I've used a 165gr Partition, Ballistic Tip, and AccuBond on pigs and deer. My buddy's elk hunting load is a 308 Win and 165 gr Partition, he's shot a ton of elk with it. IMR 4064, RL15, TAC, H4895 are all good powders for the 308 Win. Varget has been a go to but I haven't used it. Just get a good reloading manual and a video from any of the top manufacturers and take your time. The biggest thing is to stay focused and keep things simple. Learn to not get rushed and double check especially when charging your loads with powder. You do that and you're on your way to a fun and rewarding hobby. [URL]https://www.6mmbr.com/308Win.html[/URL] [/QUOTE]
