[QUOTE="SamuelBerryhill308, post: 2691644, member: 114287"] Hello all I'm trying to help my brother out he is looking at buying a new rifle and the rifles he is looking are chamber in 308 win has 1/10 twist and one in 30-06 1/11 twist but the 308 has a 22 inch barrel and the 30-06 has a 20 inch barrel. He is wanting to shoot hammer,and 175s to 210s i know the 195 eld-m and above are recommended for 1/10 twist minimum but will the 30-06 perform just the same or better with say 175s or 178s as a 308 with 208s or 210s but at a lower velocity.this will be a hunting and paper punching rifle and will be upgrading a few things on it. Out of these two calibers what does the 30-06 offer that the 22 inch 308 can't do and how much difference in fps will the 30-06 have over the 308 with the heavier bullets? [/QUOTE]
