I didn't bother to run them through the calculator to check down range velocity but my money says they're to close to care. Lets not forget the .308 can also shoot 180-240 grain bullets as well.
Just keeping the facts straight, I use a .270 and don't even own a .308 anymore.

The Nosler info I have doesn't concur. Even at max loads. Take a look at the BC's as well.
I don't see anything significant that a 308 does better with a 150 than the 270 unless it's in auto load rifles. As for 240 grain bullets I can't say as I've seen a lot of guys/girls using them and might even go so far as asking why they would.
