Default Need Help w/.308 round

Hey Guys,

I know this isn't exactly a reload question, but I figured the bullet/round experts are on the Reloading segment so here it goes...

Heading up to Maine in a few weeks to hunt whitetail. Plan on using a .308 Rem 760 Gamemaster pump that was passed on to me by my father-in-law and would like some advise on round selection. Up until now I've been shooting 150 grain Remington Express Core-Lokt PSP at the range just to have some fun shooting the rifle. Not sure this is the best round for this caliber while stalking/stand hunting up in Maine. This will be my first time rifle hunting - up untilthis season I've used shotgun for whitetails. I've been told that the Federal Nosler in 180 grain and Barnes TSX in 165would be a good selection... any thoughts on that?

Any assistanceon this topic would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott
