Thats a lot of weight to sling for the 308 case. Golf ball trajectory. .

Pike, for your Mosin, you need to get some PPU soft points. Not very available right now maybe. The 208 grain from Bear shoots well in most guns.

heavier may actually shoot higher at 50 , put some on paper and see how they are heavy bullets recoil and have longer dwell time the muzzle may be higher when they exit , probably still minute of deer at 50yards

308 cal for a Mosin If the twist of the barrel will stabilize that heavy a bullet, it should do fine.

has mat shipping you could probably order 4 boxes and it would still be 12 dollars or not much more
edited: just tried it when I got to 10 boxes it jumped to 14 dollars shipping

Thats a lot of weight to sling for the 308 case. Golf ball trajectory. . x2 A 208 gr. slug wouldn't get a second look if I was shooting a 308. That's excessively heavy for an 30-06. However the 06 has enough case capacity to accommodate it without losing powder volume.
