Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game List reasons why one would get a .308win over .270win.

For- good average performance, excellent bullet selection and huge rifle choices
Against- short case with a short neck, longer bullets are seated into the case. The neck is too short and the .308 case is better suited to the 7 08. or the wonderful .243.
The 30/06 overcomes many of a .308's limitations.
