good points all... in regards to target,yes the .308 has an edge in selection of bullets,however this thought always occurs to me,once I found the "holy grail" load of accuracy for the rifle..what do you do next? just shoot it or sell it ? I always end up with a bunch of bullets that didn't work out.
I thinking of building a heavy barrel "euro-tech" 8x57mm
with the 800+ 154grain BT-FMJ from the MG42 for 300+ yard steel plate shooting.
Hornady now make a slim line 195 plastic tips. what am I missing
A lot of those get sold in the classified section.
