Preferred load for 18" barrel 308 with 1-10 twist?

[RidgeRebel]

What load do you prefer for an 18" barrel 308 win with 1-10 twist to get out to 800m?
This will be a DPMS LR rifle. Would you use the 168 for the little faster MV or go for the 178 or heavier for the higher BC?
What's your favorite load?

Thanks
Bob

I would try around 43 grains on RL-15 in a Lake City Match case.For a bullet I would try 175 SMK or 175 Berger.I would chronograph the load for velocity.But you should be good to go.Work up load slowly.

Regards,Mike
