getting ready for some deer in CA, hot hunter 308 loads

I got my hog hunter sighted by off head at 100 yards. realize during my hike in the hunting area, 6x is too much and i need to work up a load.

I have to go full copper anyways in a year, may as start all copper. I bought Barnes TSX 30cal 180gr hpbt copper and 200gr.

Using the load data off any reloading book should be fine for 180gr and 200gr?

Thanks,

No. Solid copper(alloy) bullets use different loads
Here is a link to Barnes load data for your bullets. PDF format
