700xcr Campfire Member 7 Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 486 Kennewick,Wa.	Originally Posted by rahtreelimbs I recently got into a little pissing match with a guy. He claims that a .308 Win is not enough for full mature Pa. bucks weighing 220 to 240 lbs. He stated that the .308 wouldn't break the front shoulders. I called BS on this one. First off...why is he going for the shoulders if he questions the .308's effectiveness. Second...I believe that weight of deer in Pa. may be on the rare side. BTW.....he shoots a .300 Win Mag. IF shoulder shot is required, I would rather shot a deer thru the shoulders with a 308win then a 300win. Higher velocity of the 300win would create more meat loss. Nothing like a Remington 700xcr.
