I am looking to start reloading .308 in a much larger quantity. In short, I am tired of shooting wolf/tul/etc in order to meet my budget for the .308. I have a die, brass, primers, and powder available for reloading. However, I am stuck on bullets.
I am looking for a simple and cheap plinking rounds that can be used until hunting season. Once hunting season begins I will buy some higher quality bullets and use them specifically for hunting.
In my search for .308 bullets I have run across quite a few options. The first are pulled mil-surp bullets from midway.

At widener's I ran across some hornaday bullets that are in my price range but the bullet looks a little "small" (carbine round?):

I am looking for something that is under 75 for 500. I would prefer to avoid plated bullets so that I can load the round close to what my hunting round will be.
Looking for advice/ideas/comments on where to find, what I have found, and what you have found.
