    options for close range are endless...from old school cup n core---partitions----barnes....take your pick. one will shoot close enough to your sleak sexy to make no difference.
    Have adapted this and works good. Here's a comparison from my 308. Same distance. Note the bullet weights. From 130-178. Shot at 100yards.
