[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3946152, member: 48072"] The 120gr SST is a force multiplier for the 6.8. Up until 2019-2020, you could order it by the case (200 rounds) for about $160 + 30ish dollars for shipping. I didn't bother handloading when I could get that kind of performance for just under a buck a round. ^ of course, you could get the 123gr SST in the Grendel for the same price back then too. Aside from the SST bullet in the 6.8 though, you get REALLY limited in cost-effective and GOOD hunting bullets in a hurry. With the .308, I've had some pretty spectacular results using the cheap Federal, Winchester, and Hornady soft points. [/QUOTE]
