    i have tried a few factory .303 hunting types of ammo in my no4 and it seems to shoot the sellier&bellot 150grs the best.

    Are you after bolt or semi ? Bolt gun wise Tikka T1 or Lithgow are both excellent new factory options. If you can get a 2nd hand Anschutz 1416 GRAB IT !

    Personal preference, but I've poked 125 gn BT's out of my 308 for about 25 years, almost exclusively hunting Sika. Nice and flat out to 300, which is my personal cuttoff. Before that was 130 gn...

    The aforementioned Zeiss HD5 with ballistic turret, or the Sightron 4-20x50 is a good pick mate. I can’t speak for the Burris because I haven’t owned one, but they are getting good reviews. What...
