I'm getting ready to start load development for a 110 in .308 Win with a 16.5" barrel. I'm assuming this short barrel will produce lower velocities, so I'm contemplating a Hornady 160gr FTX (made for a 30-30). Main use of this round would be for deer hunting, out to maybe 250 yds.

I feel like the lower velocity design of this bullets would work well, but wondering if anyone had any experience or thoughts?
