    Dick's special model 11 308


    Now that they've been out for a while. Would like some reviews of guys that just use Factory ammo. Winchester 150 grain soft point sub Moa 100 200 300 yards. And I'm not that great at shot it wears the scope and came with 20 inch bull barrel. But I only shoot 3 shot groups but they do stay under moa

    They don’t even sell fishing stuff around here.

    Academy sports rules the roost now.

    Hey, I enjoy a good Dick joke as much as the next guy. But I’d really like to hear opinions about the OP’s question: What is your experience with 150 grain factory .308 ammo in a 20” barrel (from a model 10/110, of course).
    Curious minds would like to know. Especially minds that don’t reload and are thinking of building a light(ish)-weight, .308-class hunting rifle with a 20” barrel for 150 grain bullets.

    Well being as old as i am, i actually thought the question was a joke.
    Fact is i think lots of questions on this and other sites are jokes.
    Go shoot the damned gun and find out.

    With factory ammo these days you can't be too picky since there isn't much of a choice on the shelves.

    Most factory ammo will shoot 1 1/2MOA or less. Good enough for most hunting situations. Yes, you can find combinations that will do better. It is just trying different loads to see what shoots best in your rifle.

    FWIW, the experience of others may not help you. Some rifles, even same models from the same mfg, might like different loads.
