My nephew and niece drew out cow elk tags, I have two 308win one for each of them, shots will be with in 150 yards, planning on hand loading for them, I would like to get a opinion on projectiles and powder combo, I was looking at a hornady 150g sst and CFE 223 powder according to the hornady load book that would be roughly 2700fps, I load other CF rifle and pistol calibers, just not this specific round, I took out various calibers rifles and this was the most comfortable they could shoot both kids being small framed, any advice would be great, I have a buddy that hunts elk with a 308win and has harvested a good amount of them threw the years with never losing one, thanks
