Federal Fusion 150 or 165gr works best in my A-Bolt. Took my hard headed self a while to figure out it isn't what I like to shoot, it's what my gun likes to shoot. Always been a Hornady Superformance fan for my .270, so tried to tell myself that it would work in my .308, too....nope. Wouldn't shoot a good group no matter what I tried. Swapped to Hornady Whitetail line and it was better, but not as tight as I'd prefer. Tried Fusions and got the groupings I was looking for.

Any quality bullet in the 150-168 gr range will do the job if put in the "kill zone." I really like Barnes TTSX 130 gr , but my Finnlight doesn't shoot them well . I'm going back to Hornady or Nosler , both shoot one ragged hole.

I’m interested in reading about people’s experience with the new Nosler Whitetail Country solid base ammo. Y’all bunch of killers start using it and report back.
83% of all statistics are made up.

I’m a big fan of the fusions but I started shooting the 130gr Barnes TTSXs. I’ve been very impressed with the way they shoot and perform.

Whatever hunting ammo that's most accurate in your gun will kill whitetails.

My gun likes 150 Core Lokts. I’ve gotten good results with Hornady ELDX and SST’s. Yes, SST’s. The Core Lokts are easier to find, cheaper and kill deer/hogs.
GO NOLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
