Accurate AR .308 bulk ammunition - Ruger SR762

[Sieg]

I have a Ruger SR762 with a Leupold VX-R Patrol 3-9x40mm that I've only shot PMC 147 Bronze with for break in and brass inventory. The PMC appears to be 3 MOA at 100 in this gun and others have confirmed the PMC Bronze is not very accurate.

What bulk ammunition options are there for the AR10 that deliver decent accuracy for a16" barreled .308 carbine?

Privi? Federal Lake City?

I have some Sierra 168's and Varget as a starting point for hand loading, but I'd like to find some bulk practice ammo for this gun that's reasonably accurate.

Opinions appreciated

But a box of everything the store and try them out... Or, how much brass do you have?

168 FGMM has been for sale lately well under a buck delivered.

FGMM when on sale
Hornady steel March is accurate and it used to be cheap.

I'm having some initial; success with IMI 308/168 Semi Auto Match.

A good semi load is Win 308 brass, Fed 210M, 42.2 IMR-4064, 175SMK 2.815" OAL.

Substituting with the 168SMK, add small charge increments to bring it into the node.

I have 1K rounds of the PMC. I'd heard from multiple people that the brass was OK for reloading. If it's trash sound off please!

I didn't buy the SR762 expecting it to be sub MOA at 100, though I'd think sub 2MOA is obtainable.

I bought the Lake City M118LR recently when I built my AR 308 and it has been very good.

I’ve had good success with this, hovers around MOA or so in my Remington 700 and at about 60 cents a round it’s very inexpensive for 308.

Or these if you want to stay in the 168grain range.

I bought new, unloaded PPU (Prvi-Partizan) 308 brass and am using it for my 308 handloads. Getting good accuracy with known loads.

I started using PPU bass for my handloads back during the early Obamathon buying PP 223 55FMJ for $5 and change. It's only lately being overshadowed by Starline in my inventory (.223 and .308). Good (enough) practice ammo, even better brass.
