    It'll come out different in every gun mate. Part of the fun is finding what your gun likes

    As far as bullet selection goes, Sierra gamekings are pretty good bullets (for me they've performed well both up close 50m all the way out past 400m) and they're cheap. 150 grain bullets are about average for a 308 so it's a good place to start. Play with a few powder charges (AR2208 maybe? I use AR 2206H in my 7mm08) and see what your gun likes.

    Good luck for your hunt. Bloody hell it's nearly the roar already...
