Thread: HELP !!! 308 loads

Hi Guys and Girls, am new to hunting and shooting so please forgive my ignorance. We all have to start somewhere !!

Anyway I am thinking of reloading , I mainly hunt for red Deer.

Im using a 308 Rifle shooting short range to say 0 - 250 meters

Would 150 grain with ballistic tip be a good start. Or would you use 150 grain with soft point tip. ( The reason I say 150 grain is I am presently using 150 grain soft point federal factory ammo , which has done the job so far.)

I know its a bit like asking how long is a piece of string, as ppl will have different views.

But whats a good load.?

Thanks in advance.
