Can't knock the easy button.
Funny, "easy button" is how I described the 308 to a co-worker when he asked what he should get for deer hunting.

I have a decent array of big game rifles from 243-375 and really like my boring 308 and 30-06.

They just kill stuff, no fluf, no BS and no drama with good old fashioned "soft points".


Bore size is no substitute for shot placement and
Power is no substitute for bullet performance. 458WIN
