The most accurate .308 load I ever put together was with Sierra 165gr. Game King bullets. By all means refer to reloading manuals for conformation, but I think you will be very pleased with H-380 in the 46.5 to 47.5 grain range. Usual safe reloading practices apply. This was a competitive match load used to win at Camp Perry.
I have this same rifle and I use 762x51 or also 308 up to 185 grain. I can almost hit a dime bulls eyes from 100 yards with an inch groupings or so nearly perfect . I use a good leupold scope about 900 dollars and most of all I do not use any bipod or sandbags .
my american is doing like your 3 in center @ 100 yds with cheap tul ammo. Love it. .73
Great little rifle, cant beat the price
