[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1317414, member: 2736"] I would try bullets in the 150 to 160 weight to improve velocity at the Point of impact (POI) it will extend your range for better bullet performance and reduce the trajectory. It is hard to get away from the high BC bullets but without the velocity they have no real advantage. Obviously you are not planning on 1000 yard shots with the short barrel and you may find better accuracy with lighter bullets. In some cases a flat base bullet may do even better. I have used these bullet weights for hunting in .308 pistols and rifles with no failures. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
