Now that the correct bullet weight for the caliber has been arrived at I will offer this as to choice of bullet. The Nosler Partition and Ballistic Tip projectiles group very close together in the same rifle using the same loading data. This is the case in the 6 .308 rifles that I load for. Some of them shoot a better group with a different bullet but being able to have a choice in bullet type and not having to re zero is a thought.
