Where can I find 168gr for .308.
« on: October 03, 2012, 10:44:03 AM »
I'm having a heck of a time 168gr rounds for my savage .308.  Does any one know of possibly a website that has them?  Seems every where i go they are out or have to order them for extra charge.  For now I'm using 150's which is okay but the 168's are considerably more accurate.

165's have always shot pretty much same as the match 168's I have loaded in my 30-06.

Cabela's has some. I don't know if they are online though.

Do you need loaded ammo or just bullets for reloading?

Loaded ammo.  I have had 168gr Lapua's and they have quit a bit more accuracy at longer range.  Even 165's have been hard to find.
