[QUOTE="jflester, post: 481599, member: 31632"] Mike, thanks for making me feel good about the 308. I bought an xs7 marlin, yes its an inexpensive rifle, but my reloads RL15/45 gr and 165 SST Horandys tack a .75 MOA @ 100yds. I can't complain with the accuarcy for the price. Its a basic 308, nothing fancy but accurate none the less. After researching the 308 for months, the choice was easy. I have used the 270 here in VA for deer and find the 130 gr bullets do the job with no problem. But the 270 Win is a grade rifle/wood and I don't care to chew it up in the field anymore. The Marlin with composite stock and beaded barrel is sweet and the trigger sytem works well. Its a real pleasure to shoot and I would not hesitate at 600yds with it. Its light, easy to handle in the field and I don't for a second doubt the putdown power of it. Its now my go to. I still love my 270, and may even get another Marlin in 270. Yea they shoot that well.
