Gotta be the Berger 185 Hybrid Target. I was shooting 175SMK ahead of 44.7 Varget in Lapua brass but, on a whim, stuck 185 Hybrids in their place. I seated them to feed in my AIAW mags and never looked back. IME, I put Hybrids of any caliber at the top of the easy list.
I have shot the 185 "Juggernaut" and it is easy to tune. I have shot the Berger 200-20Xs, 215 Hybrids and the 230 Hybrids, which are pretty easy to tune. Now IF (and this is a B-I-G IF) you have the correct twist and the correct freebore, AND you have a stock with a low-enough center of gravity, AND take the time to learn to control the recoil / torque, the Berger 230 Hybrids, at least for me in my rifles, is the easiest to tune and the most accurate of them! I know there are a lot of "ifs" in there, but they are easily overcome and well worth getting the correct barrel chambered up! I have never shot them out of a .308, however, you never mentioned the cartridge you were going to use. My rifles are chambered in .300WSM..
