[QUOTE="matemike, post: 1888274, member: 78984"] Another vote for the Berger classic hunter. 168gr I have used the 168gr VLD hunter in both 308 and 7mmRM. My 308 is also shot suppressed 100% of the time. It has dropped deer dead every time for me in 308, but if the deer are too close when shooting the VLD's in 7mmRM they may run a bit. A few have behaved like they were not even hit. walked off and died later. no lost game thus far, knock on wood. It really is a long range bullet, not a 200 yard or less bullet. So that's why my vote has gone toward the classic hunter. It's what I use now and no more problems. Plus, through practice I know it is accurate enough for me out to 1,000 with either rifle. I just don't shoot deer that far. IMO you can shoot steel with anything where they allow shooting steel and why not practice with your hunting round? [/QUOTE]
