Purchased this rifle to plink, hunt with, when not using my m1a/sks. Also if the wife or kiddos start shooting, its a tame round for them.

Setting up my reloading stuff here in the next month, and just been doing research on where to start.
Currently have some 308 135gr hpbt, and some barnes tac-x 310 123gr for the sks. Powders I have around are imr 4320 and 4895. I have some Winchester brass and some prvi brass.

I know the magic bullet for 7.62x51 is the 168gr, anyone think they have the magic bullet for the 308 in 7.62x39? What loads have you had trouble with, and success with?
