Little bit additional data… tried some factory ammo in the 308 this morning. Hornady precision hunter 1780 eldx. Shot like absolute garbage… I may have not been 100% on my game when shooting but I should’ve been able to keep it around 1-1.25” if the gun/ammo combo worked.
I haven’t shot much factory ammo with this 308 rifle (the 270 has seen a lot of factory ammo). This opened my eyes a bit to maybe the 308 is just not a super accurate rifle and it’s not 100% my reloading process thats keeping it from shooting cloverleaf groups. I see a lot of 1”-1.5” groups with my reloading and this 308. This factory ammo shot about 3.25” group (I let the barrel cool between shots)
