RE: Ammo for .308??
Thank you all for your responses. I will hopefully make it to the range this week to start narrowing down my choices and I am well aware that my gun will have it's favorite; however, I'm also well aware of my pocket book.
A big part of my dilema has been the pricing on some of the "premium" bullets; however, I found the Hornady 150grain SST for $22 a box and the Federal Premium 165 grain MatchBTHP for $20 a box. I believe these are both good quality bullets and those prices are much cheaper than some of the others.
Anybody have any experiences or opinions with using either of these bullets on Whitetail deer, hogs, etc???

Don't forget to include this load in your testing. It's a great load.
By the way that is a great price on the Hornady.
