[QUOTE="aramarine6, post: 792407, member: 24685"] Totally different cartridge and ballistics. 308 is very efficient in shorter barrels compared to a caliber like the 6.5/284. Which is optimized in a 26in tube. 6.5 bullets also have better BCs. But depending on what he plans on doing with the rifle it maybe exactly what he needs. I bought a 308 with a 16.5 barrel. I'm not going to set any speed records but hunting in the thick Northwoods of Wisconsin it is perfectly matched for my conditions and game. [/QUOTE]
