I was talking to a guy at the range a couple of weeks ago, we were comparing notes on our 308's...

Guns weren't similar (he had a CZ750), my son has a Savage- but they both seem to prefer the heavier bullets. My son's likes the 175 SMK's (and doesn't like the 168's)- and he suggested the 178 Amax. I had overlooked that bullet- and we've had good luck with the Amax in other calibers. I'm ordering a box of the 178's and see how his rifle likes them.
