OK here I am a day late and dollar short.

Wanted to hunt with my .308 this year but I have not set up at various ranges to figure my drops.

Does any one have any ballistic data for winchester .308 168GR silver tips from a 20" barrel? Winchester has drops and velocitys on their sight but typically these are all for a 24" (site dosnt specify barrel length)

The mark of a truly superior pilot is the use of his superior judgment to avoid situations requiring use of his superior skills.

Subtract 75 fps and extrapolate the data for the 24" barrel. It should get you well within the ball park.

If people were informed rather than sheltered, if they were taught critical thinking skills, if they knew the world through their own eyes instead of the media proxy, the country would be a much safer place.
