since 110vmaxes shoot very well compared to others id think trying something in hornadys line might be worth while.
im checkn BC on the 150gr hornady sst. i dont know much about BC but i do know the better. this bullet has BC of .415 wich is pretty good. maybe bigbrother or roy or maybe will jump in and tell us about the Ballistic Coefficient.
the 150gr spire point(lead knose hunting bullet) has a .338 BC id shy away from this bullet
the 155gr Amax's BC is .435 pretty good. and would make a good deer bullet.
165gr interbond is .447 very good bc in a solid hunting bullet. and the SSt has the same BC
168gr Amax is .475 id hunt deer with this bullet in a heart beat. and i just might try it.
178gr amax is .495 now were cookin.
heres the page i got that info from.
https://www.hornady.com/shop/
if i was to grab a 308. or any 30 cal rifle today and start loading. id try either hornadys. sst in 165 or the 168 amax. the 178 amax has the highest bc and i might throw caution to the wind and give it a go first. any 150gr bullets would be at the bottom of my list.
then next on the list id try nolser bullets.
good luck

donnie.
it took me some lookin but i finaly found the info on speers grand slam. this to me looks like a bullet that alot of reloaders might pass by and never miss. its got a bc of .305 wich isnt very good. to be honest i havent heard much on the bullet.
but BC might not be everything. i shoot alot of 100gr core lokts through my 2506. they have a low BC. but can print very good 100yrd groups and kill game to 400 yards pretty dang consinstently if i do my part. there are other bullets with better stats even still the little core lokts give me good enough results to keep useing them. wich tells me more all general purposes and all. the low bc doesnt mean much of anything to 400yds. im throwing that 400yd number out there because ive taken quite a few rock chucks and coyotes in that area.
but any longer range than that and any and everything starts to matter at a very fast rate. but for me and the range i usualy take game and varmits i could let alot of things linger and still be consinstent.
ive been going to try sierra bullets but havent got around to them yet. ive heard these bullets in the green box are some the of the most consintent bullets in the bunch. if the box says they weigh 150grs that might be a plus more minus number. some might weigh 151 then others 149. suposebly the sierras are closer to beiing excat then most.
