[QUOTE="acloco, post: 344792, member: 6137"] Go with the 24" barrel, a little extra cannot hurt. Start buying 168 gr AMax or HPBT's....or 175's if so inclined. Do you reload? Easily pay for a Dillon 550B if you load 1000 rounds of 308. Cost calculator (buy bullets and powder in bulk!) [url=http://www.handloads.com/calc/loadingCosts.asp]Handloading Cost Calculator[/url] If you reload, cost is $355 per 1000 rounds of ammo. If you purchase 1000 rounds, 168 gr Federal Gold Medal is $39 per 20 ...so that would be $1950 per thousand!!! So....the pricing of components is: $140 for 8 lb jug of powder $35 for 1000 primers $100 for a thousand 1x fired cases $120 for four 250 packs of 168 AMax Plus $200 in miscellaneous reloading supplies, $400 for the Dillon, $80 for Dillon dies, etc.....
