Even though I've owned many 308's. I definitely prefer the '06! The only reason for the 308, in my mind is that it is easier to find light rifles in 308. The only reason for a lighter rifle for me is if I'm in the steep mountains. But since I have a 350 RM in a Remington 600 I've eliminated that advantage of the lighter rifle/308 since the 350 is definitely a many steps above the 308 in every hunting aspect.
But if I were to shoot competitive target shooting where 1/8" group was needed, I'd be looking at the 308 as an option.

I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally
