[QUOTE="SavageShtr, post: 268731, member: 15118"] i was getting over 2800 fps out of my 308 with 175gr fmj hand loads. factory savage 12fv 26" barrel. so it is verry concievable to get some good speed out of a 308, yes granted it isn't a 300wsm or 30-06 but you can't beet it for starting out. i bet there isn't to many people on this thread that can say they started out with a super magnum caliber for lr. mosty people that start with a large caliber gun end up quiting do to the recoil and noise from a break, also the expence of ammo esspecially factory ammo at $70+ a box. think about it. but that is just my opinion we are all free to do wat we fill is the best for the situation we may be in. happy shooting. keep your barrels warm.
