.308 using 168 Nosler custom comp or 168 SMK

[MarioM]

Been shooting 175 SMK's for years going to try some 168's just wondering what loads and bullet speeds you guys are getting out of different barrel lengths and twist. Would like to know what kind of groups you achieve pushing them past 800 also. More curious than anything I found a good deal on some 168 Nosler Custom Competitions.

Thanks guys.

For 168 SMK, I would run around 2,650 fps from 24"
Barrel. Very accuracy within 600 yards.

But after passed 600 yards, I would bump up to 175 SMK or 168 Hybrid.

I've shot the Nosler 168 Custom Comps for several years now. Started with the SMK's but in my rifle the Noslers actually performed better. As always, YMMV.
