10-4 Ridge Runner. However consider this too in chosing a load. If you are not hand loading, I suggest that you try at least 3 different factory loads looking for the tigest grouping load.

Every 308 Win. I have ever sighted in "liked" bullets in the 165 gr. range at around 2650 - 2700 fps. So I would start with the major manufacturers' loads that use 165-168 gr. hunting bullets and go from there. And don't forget the trig. If you find one say that groups 1" at 50 yards, the group will be about 2" at 100 yards (i.e. 2X). Take that into consideration.
