hmmm...If you are referring to the MKE ZQ1 147 grain Turkish made stuff (7.62x51 Nato), I have had an issue with them in only one of my .308's. My Ruger Gunsite scout bolt gun doesn't like them. I have found it likes 168 grain ammunition way better. For range ammo, try the PMC Bronze .308 Winchester, it's inexpensive and seems to shoot well, although the ZQ1 stuff is cleaner in my opinion. My Ruger Gunsite loves the Privi Partisan 168gr match ammo (which is also pretty inexpensive in bulk, but I wouldn't call it match grade). I can also recommend the RedDotArms re-manufactured .308 ammo! It works well in every .308 platform I own. I dislike the Winchester .308 'white' box stuff, the Super X stuff is way better. Just some comments on .308 ammo types...
