I am about out of 178 ELD's and am wondering about switching to the 168s. I trust Hornady G7 data and it looks like they actually might be a better choice for the .308. I am not a competitor but do enjoy plinking at our 1400 yard Gong range. Maybe Rob01 can help me out? I have followed all your advice on the 175 and 178's. I have lots of WW, Federal and BH brass.
