As above, the 174 gr service bullet, or the 180 gr Sierra is likely best, ( if you can find them. )

Your rifle may possibly need a going over, as if it is a normal service rifle, it will be some time since it was last in an armourer's hands.
With longer range, a lot of it comes down to form, wind -reading and taking a consistent sighting.
If you are a newcomer to the L-E, try for consistency first at short range, say 100 -300 yards.
Do let us know how it goes!
