In the .308, I'd look hard at the 130. I used the 160 in .338 at ~3080FPS and it works great on Elk, Kudu, Waterbuck, Impala, Gemsbok and Blesbok. The 30 cal 130 at similar speeds should work well.

But to your point, I guess I'd have to shoot the 150 and 168 into something such as damp newsprint/magazines at representative speeds and see what happened. The reported better opening of the 168 makes a compelling case counter to the normal faster-is-better mono theory.
