Thread: .308 Options - Help needed

I have currently a Remington S/S .308 which has been passed down to me. It is in very good order and had little use. With the late owner's wife's permission, I am going to modify it somewhat. I have already decided it's getting the chop and suppressed. The questions I have or would like some advice around is more specific to reloading and bullets .

1 . Never really having reloaded for a 30 cal what are some of the regular deer killer's preferred bullets of choice ?

2. Are there bullets to avoid? What is the general go to load to start with? If it was a 7mm I know the answers inside out. This is new territory .

3. What is the best ADI powder for .308 ?

Note - This is not going to be a stretch the legs type of rifle so just after maximum killing power.

Thanks in advance N
