You will find a load it likes, keep the barrel clean during your process to find the right load.

I have several hand loads that will produce <.250 100 yard groups. 168 and 175's seem to work the best. Sometimes factory loads just won't work except you will probably find one for hunting.

I bought one, bedded it, tweaked the trigger and now refuse to sell the gun. I use it for hunting.

HSM is some of the best factory loads I have ever used, if you can find it for your 308.
