No doubt the 308 is effective against game, and it totally makes sense if one has stockpiled thousands of 308 ammo.... I'm just trying to figure out what the 308 gets me that a 6.5 in the same barrel length doesn't have. Other than ammo and barrel life.
I'm happy you like the 6.5CM.
Ain't freedom to choose great?
I may have one at some point. But in the meantime, I'll just be happy with the penetration and energy out of my .308, and keep on killing stuff...
Theres no hog in this world thats going to see a difference in the lethality of the 2 cartridges mentioned here, but in most cases the shooter will notice better accuracy and precision with the creedmoor. The milder recoil also allows for quicker follow up shots. Theres no contest as far as I'm concerned, but theres also nothing wrong with loving the 308
