My 308 likes 180 grain SSTs and IMR 4064 powder for a hunting load. It’s a little heavy for deer but it was all that was available for a while.
I used CCI #34 primers, partly because they were all I could find but also because it’s an AR style and I was skittish about a slam fire in that style. I’ve tried Winchester LRP too.
For non-hunting it’s hard to beat the 175 grain Sierra Match King with the same powder and primer combo. I had good luck with 168 grain Amax and CFE 223 powder accuracy wise but it is over gassed in my rifle but might work well in a bolt gun.
