My choice for deer in a .308 would be the 165 gr. Speer Hot-core, a spitzer flat base bullet. That bullet has passed through every der I've shot with it, except one. That deer was 250 yards out facing me. The bullet entered the chest, passed through the deer coming to a stop against a back leg bone, breaking it. The bullet retained 65 percent of it's weight, and the deer went bang-flop.
