For most of my purposes I quit loading my 308s full throttle. Because of visibility and/or terrain the shots where I deer hunt top out at 300 yards or so. So rather than 46 grains of Varget under a 165/168 grain bullet you'll most likely find me using one of several mid speed propellants to duplicate the speed range of the old LC M852 match round. Current issue 165 grain SSTs, 165/168 grain Ballistic Tips and 168 grain Berger VLDs launched at 2550-2600 fps all do the trick quite nicely.
