Go to your nearest Wal-Mart (Wally World), and buy some Federal PowerShoks, they are only $11.95 per box, and they are very accurate, they are kinda "loaded", so to speak, in fact, they shoot an inch higher than Hornady SST's!

I would really suggest the Powershoks, they worked great for my Remington Model 673 .308, and you should see if they work for you.


Just My 2 Cents.....

I've shot lots of .308 factory ammo and found them to be very consistent. I also like the Federals but I'm just as pleased with the Winchester line. If you're just shooting paper why not check out some mil surp ammo?

i ust got the same rifle last wed. federal powershocks are what i target with. i also like the hornady tap ammo and the winchester ballistic silver tips. did you get the 20in or 24in barrel? mine is a 24 and i love it. it is the most accurate out of the box rifle i own.
