My understanding on the 308 is that there is some sort of "magic" balance with that particular case length, powder charge, burn rate, velocity, and a 168 grain bullet.

The 168gr boattail hollow point round is incredibly accurate. Long range, high power rifle championships have been won with it!

With my Savage .308 and a 165gr round or the match grade 168gr BTHP, heck, even I can get cloverleaf groupings!
