600yds in TN?
I'm lucky to find 150yds of open terrain in Middle TN.
Go into the bean fields of West TN, and you might get there.
Seriously, FCS covered pretty much everything.

Practically any expanding bullet above 150gr will do in any deer in north america if you put it in the boiler room.

Honestly the best way to search this site is Google. Something like ".308 Hunting Snipershide" search bar is a bit underpowered.
The above list I would say is a good one but in my experience taking off the SMK.
You can do well from 150ish up to 200ish if your rifle can shoot them well and they are a good bullet when put into meat.

165gr-180gr Nosler ballistic tip.

And we all stand amazed at the profound wisdom you have shared. Thank goodness there are kind hearted and intelligent souls like you to impart this deep and obscure knowledge.
Ahh here we go, yet another post that contributes nothing but to your post count...gee.
What good is a forum if a guy cant ask a simple question and get a simple response. Fact is that is what it is supposed to be about. The search function is shit. Maybe it as been discussed before...who fucking cares? Yes I've seen some pretty fucking stupid questions asked here but it doesn't stress me out.
The guy you help out today may turn around and pass it on later which perpetuates these venues. Kinda like Larry Flynt said if you don't like it don't read it.
Post count? Who the hell post's for count anymore, that's so 2010.
I have redacted the rest of this post because "who fucking cares?"
I stand bye my last post, thank goodness you shared such profound and obscure knowledge.

we hunt out on the prairies a bit….I know there are any number of rounds that will work and some may even disagree with me. But, I have pretty much exclusively used 168 gr. amax rounds the last couple years. Shots have been out to 550 yards and I have NO COMPLAINTS at all about the effectiveness of the round at those ranges
