Doubt you really need to go longer than that.

aha...NOW I see where your issues with .308 stem from....... horrible hot loads,perfect for out long but not a patch on a soft 180 up close n personal...... one of these days I will get you edumacated and using PROPER bush loads in that cannon.....
strewth that load combo would be more volitile than the EBRG loads.....at 50 yards would be almost a varmit loading.....
Ducking for cover.....
