I found it had a sharper report, sharper recoil, and for my use, didn't kill any deader or farther than my .300. Yes, the .308 is easier to find and less expensive but, I prefer the .300. To each his own, they're all good.

Shew me thy ways, O LORD: teach me thy paths.

"the .30 Springfield is light, accurate, penetrating, and has surprising stopping power"
