    .308 projectile selection- 1 bullet for all my uses

    Hey guys,

    Purchased a Howa .308 and scoped it with a Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40.

    Will be used for coyotes and whitetail deer (bigger than a fallow slightly smaller than a red but shit they are tough).

    Both present shots at 50-400 yards and I will dial for elevation and hold for wind.

    A bullet to do it all? You may say it doesn't exist but I just cannot be assed doing two loads and re sighting etc. I just want one round that I can use year round.

    150 SST?

    Oh and Im not worried about keeping coyote skins- pest control only
    I could just post it on a predator forum or something over here but I don't want to cheat on NZHS
