My hunting loads in .308 Winchester use 165 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip (green tip) or Accubond (white tip). If I think I’ll be shooting close in (less than 100 yards) I’ll go with the Accubond. Anything else, the Ballistic Tip. Both bullets fly the same with the same load (from my rifle).
My round of choice for many years was 180 gr Remington bronze points in 30-06. They started to become hard to get and then my buddy that did my reloading passed away. I about 5 years ago I switched to factory Federal Premium Accubonds and got my son using Federal Premium 140 gr ballistic tips in 7MM-08. They are quite devastating on whitetail.
