[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 79226, member: 8947"] In comparable barrels, the '06 will be faster then the 308 by up to 150fps for all bullet weights. You would have to use equal chamber pressures as well. However, many older rifles with rough bores will not allow that high a velocity without excessive pressures. If using standard SAAMI spec loads, both are pretty much the same. The 308 is very popular due to its roots in the military. It is not a ballistically superior rd when compared to the 6mm to 7mm options today. Jerry [/QUOTE]
