Browning X bolt ammo choice.

[Albifrons]

Hello, just wondering what ammo people use in their Browning X bolt 2 in .308.

Just got one from new and tried some NORMA WHIITETAIL in 150g and over 20 rounds through it, but nowhere near a good grouping.
Does anyone think that I need to put a few more rounds through it or try a different brand?

Thanks all.

Don’t know which barrel you have but my Xbolt varmint 308 in 1:12. Tried lots of different ammo at least 10 types, lead and non toxic and found it likes to be clean to shoot non toxic. 150gr Norma Whitetails grouped nice but 123gr Sako Gameheads were very good on paper but are quite destructive, doesn’t like anything Hornady, Whitetail were 2” group, SSTs and CX were actually shocking 4” plus groups. Didn’t like RWS Evo Green, Fed PowerShok or S&B.

Geco Zero 136gr group sub MOA, EPA LPHP 112gr shoot well and great little bullet if you reload. With the slow twist it likes the shorter bullet
