I use Hornady SST 150's in my .308 Sako. Fantastic rounds and my Sako really shoots them well. I figure it is more than enough bullet for deer. I suppose 165's would work too though.
I think Freedom Fighter makes a really good point on the SST rounds and closer ranges. Last season I shot a deer at around 75 yards and there were two exit wounds and I did about 100 feet of easy tracking with a good blood trail. A deer taken this year at 150 yards dropped dead in its tracks.
