    My mate just uses the Winchester 180gn in his 16” 308. Or as VC says, federal 150gn blue box will do the job.

    Nice! A short barrel 708 can be a handy and useful little gun. I took my 15 inch barreled model 7 7mm08 away on a fallow hunt a couple of weekends ago. Had no problem neck shooting a...

    I used, and suggest you try the Hornady match loads with the 168gr ELD-M. The reason I suggest that is, due the lowered speeds out of a short .308 you want a projectile that will open up for you and...

    I use sst superformance in my shorty 308 and it goes good 0.7 moa at 200m on the only time I've shot that far with it at targets. Shot animals between 10m and 230m with it and they died so good...

    Sako have made a 150gr now for their softpoint variety. Unsure where you can get it but will be on the cheaper side and should shoot good from your tikka

    I was loading 130gr ttsx for my 14.5” .308, but now I’m shooting sako 165gr gamehead pro. Very accurate out to 500yards for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Belmont 130gr or superperformance seem to be most popular I hear. Personally reload but have heard good things about both from folks with "bushpigs".
