[QUOTE="diamonddave2, post: 2149638, member: 52150"] My thoughts are the 150 and 165 grain are too heavy to get the long range velocity you'd need for expansion in blacktail. You will need to handload, as nobody I'm aware of, loads 110-130 grain lead free bullets in their ammo for the 308. I shot a hog with my AR10 last spring with a handloads using 110 grain GSX. I brain shot it from 125 yards and it was. DRT. Didn't recover the bullet. It's fast and accurate, though over gassed, in my AR10. You could try a custom reloading company to make up your loads if you don't reload. Remember, lighter than normal bullet selection, for lead free. [/QUOTE]
