[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 706774, member: 25383"] original poster wants a lever gun. Plus at two hunded yards the difference is about 200ft. lb. of energy assuming the bullet dosn't exit the torso. One has a little better sectional density, while the other has greater mass and cross section. In otherwords at 100 feet, which one would would you choose to shoot ole griz in the chest with? Neither is perfect for sure, but each has an advantage over the other. At the muzzel the .450 makes the .308 an also run. A max loaded .444 with the 300 grain Speer bullet (2200 fps) will have about 3500 ft.lb. of energy at the muzzel. You just can't get there with a 308. gary [/QUOTE]
