    Factory .308 ammo for 16" Tikka to 300m+?

    Hey guys, I have a Tikka T3X .308. It has been shortened to 18" by the original owner. I'm thinking of getting a QD Oceania Defence can for it and have it shortened to 16" so it is still quite handy as OD cans are muzzle forward.

    I do plan to get into reloading as I've always been interested in it but for now is there a factory .308 round that will punch out from a 16" suppressed rifle with good expansion/knock down for deer at around 300 - 350max meters?

    Cheers
