Interesting. So far the best factory load I’ve found for my Savage has been Remington corelokts. I believe 150gr. Grouped 1.5” at 200yds no problem. My goal now is to work something up with the 150 interlock or ballistic tips cuz I have a few hundred on hand. Still deciding which caliber to take this year.

The Interlocks are great for deer. I used the BT for a few years till I had issues with them on deer at closer ranges. Switched to Sierra soft points in my 308 and have never had a issue.

I’ve been thinking about trying Sierra’s. Maybe I’ll pick some up and give them a shot.

The Pro Hunters are very good also. Both 308 & 06.

I've been using 180 Barnes tsx in my 30-378, 165grain hornady sp in one of my 300 wby, 150 gr v-max in another and been using the same bullet in my 300 savage. I change bullets a lot and had great luck with the game kings in all weights

I have loaded for 308 110 thru 180 gr bullets the 110 had explosive results on woodchucks and fun to shoot The area where I hunt deer is dense woods so the longest shot is 75 max. I Like the game kings in 150 or sst in 150. 110 gr. varmageddon nice for chucks and other varmints.

I use to use 168 gr nosler partition for my 06. I've moved to a 308 now but I'd imagine the same bullet will shoot well in it to. Gotta dial my loads in first. So far it's loving the nosler 168 gr custom competition bthp. Alot of my hunting (when I was able to go) is in the woods so I don't have a long shot so there I use my 45 marlin cowboy or 45 Ruger blackhawk.
