    My solution- hand load 168gr TMKs and put a VX5 2-10 CDS ZL2 on her as opposed to trying to build a dedicated rig. That way it can do both hunting and gong ringing.

    One of the reasons I love 308 is it's simplicity.
    Me too looks like a rebarrel might be on the cards soon
    BC doesn't matter, until you need to dial
