RE: .308 factory ammo for bear.
My brother has a .308 that gets more velocity (when reloaded)withboth 150 gr or 165gr bullets than my 30-06 using the same amount of powder and same primers..
We have never compared commercial ammo
And according to Speer (cause I phoned them) this isn't a surprise..
Aparantly Theyget alot of calls..
Cosidering this cal. is very very accurate using a wide variety of commercial ammo, (more so than the 3006) Its plenty for game out to 400yrds.
165 GR TBBC . 165 PARTITIONS, 165 TSX...
