I have had a .308, or two for a long time. They are great. I just (yes I'll admit it) traded for my first ever .270. It is a post 64 Model 70 and shoots Hornady Whitetail ammo into one hole at a hundred yards. I am going to shoot a couple deer with it this fall, just to say that I did.

That being said, I generally like the short-action calibers, for my go-to hunting rifles for deer and antelope. The .308 will eat lots of different bullets and powder and shine with them all. There is really no bad answer here.


You did not "seen" anything, you "saw" it.
A "creek" has water in it, a "crick" is what you get in your neck.
