    308 and monolithic

    quick query. I've been out on a hunt recently and shot a fallow hind with a 7-08 running a 120gr barnes bullet (someone else's rifle). I was impressed with the bullet, mushroomed on opposite under skin, with minimal muscle damage on the exit channel with good projectile weight retention... just wondering if anyone is reloading barnes for the 308? and if so, what's their experience with it hunting etc? I'm guessing you'd go a slightly smaller projectile to keep the velocity up? 130, or 150grn in a 308?
