Handload some 165 NPT's To match your Game Kings or what Bob said.

I have been using 180 NPT's for a long time [1980+-] in the '06. I also use a .338 Win Mag with 225's but it isn't needed.

When I used a .308 I used 150's and 165's cup and cores. They worked fine. Only through some study did I determine that the elk that had died from them were victims of miraculous kills.
