I don't shoot competition and certainly you will get better advice than mine.
I have been told that in the 7.62 sniper round,they found the 168 has some going wobbly problem at long range and the 175 MK solves that problem and has a better BC.
Another possible direction,as you say this is all for fun,the 155 MK and Palma supposedly can be kept supersonic at 1000 yds from a .308(long barrel)
If a .308 can do it,an 06 can too.
I'm not saying this is the path for competition,but you said for fun.
