B14 ridge Bergara rifle in .308

[Gyrfalcon]

I own a Bergara B14 ridge in .308 Win.
Have an superb load with 168 Sierra matchkings and Varget @ 2700 fps. 1-1.5 “ groups at 200 yards all the time.
Bullets seated to .025 from the lands.
Will not fit in the clip magazine.
Sierra matchkings are not recommended for deer hunting and I want to be able to use a a clip when hunting.
I have spend by now a small fortune in trying to find a factory or hand load for hunting, that will consistently stay in 2” when fed from the clip, which is seized to accommodate SAAMI MOAL. The best I get is3-4 inches.
Is there anyone who shoots a Bergara and has a factory or hand load for hunting grade bullets in .308 Win that stays in the 2 inch at 200 yards when fired from the Bergara clip or magazine?.
Like I said I already spend a small fortune searching, with todays prices and scarcity of products/components I need all the help I can get.
Thank you for your time.

I have found the Barnes ttsx 168 gr load shoots really well from my Ruger rifle. they are almost as accurate as the federal gold metal 168 gr loads.

Most hunting 165s with 4064 at mag length have worked in every 308 I have had. Not sure how much more Varget you want to burn up.

Assuming all mechanical issues are resolved? Action screws? Barrel clean? Rings tight? Good scope? Good shooting routine?

Consider a bullet in the 150gr range. Maybe a monometal or partition to prevent over-expansion due to the higher speeds.
The shorter nature of it would lend itself to not exceeding OAL
